Heffner, American historian, broadcaster, and University Professor of Communications and Public Policy at Rutgers, began a weekly public television series called The Open Mind.

BEST thoughtful quote:  

"No human race is superior; no religious faith is inferior. All collective judgments are wrong. Only racists make them."

Elie Wiesel on his memoir, 'All Rivers Run to the Sea.'

Never shall I forget that night, the first night in camp, that turned my life into one long night seven times sealed.
Never shall I forget that smoke.
Never shall I forget the small faces of the children whose bodies I saw transformed into smoke under a silent sky.

We often question why does G'd create monsters such as Hitler and his insane Reich and its criminal Army , killing several million citizens in his own country and the whole neighborhood ? !?

 So far there's no logic answer that makes sense!!  

 Why don't monsters eat ghosts?
 Because they taste like sheet.
