Dissonance

Be happy and be haunting. Slip into that perfect disguise that will advertise who you really are. Get sexy and be sure to set out plenty of Kit Kats for the kids. Take a break from the war on terror and terrify someone to death. Go on, have another mojito and a Mars Bar chaser. Party hard but stay out of the party-central Castro. It's Halloween, the most dizzily dissonant holiday of the year.

-Steve Winn From the San Francisco Chronicle.

I think this hits the nail on the head. How can we be for something and against something? For God has put us in charge of small things (national holidays) and He will put us in charge of greater things (worldwide causes) only based on how we respond responsibly to our charge over the little things. That's food for thought...
