Monsignor Lorenzo Albacete
I thought that it was interesting that this priest, Monsignor Lorenzo Albacete said that he lives good and evil all the time. I agree with him that it all has to do with humanity. Some events we witness are considered evil but 9/11 was different. As he says, “There was more I had to pay attention to.” When 9/11 occured the country changed the whole atmospher was different. The way he says that the Twin Towers is human dreams, human desire etc. was completely true. The Twin Towers is humanity and it was destroyed because people hated humanity and the U.S. Hatred in humanity is a part of us everyone has it and everyone has done some sort of evil action. My favorite quote in this article is, “It was to stare at it, to face it, not to go away; above all, not to look for explanations…” This spoke out to me strongly because I feel that our country tends to avoid certain events and trys to ignore what happened. However, with the magnitude of the event people were forced to face the truth, look it right in the eye and realize what was going on in their country. The supposibly safe United States of America. The humanity of U.S. citizens is hated and the realizations are hated. Evil was presented on 9/11 and caused a most horrific and dramatic impact on our country.
