    Pope prays for peace, Jesus resurrected 2,000 years ago! No peace, no answers to prayers asking for peace. Why do these prayers fall on deaf ears? How many Popes and how many Clerics and how many people pray for peace over the centuries since Jesus has been resurrected and no response from Him The Prince of Peace?

    Oh! I forgot that peace is still in the future. So, I'm thinking we should just stop praying for peace because if and when it comes in our lifetime, it will come only when The Prince Of Peace is ready to step in not a second sooner whether we pray for it or not.

    Every time there is a Holiday, the news is that some religious leader is praying for peace. Peace to you all.

    What would you have the pope pray for? Praying for peace can appeal to anybody no matter what their religious affiliation. Were he to be silent on Easter Sunday would be unthinkable, not that his praying or remaining silent would make and real difference. Perhaps a more effective appeal from the pope would be to ask that all people everywhere remain silent and discover the peace that is already here, and which flows from one's true essence.

    As long as humans fail to spiritualise there can be no peace in the world that is what alienation from the life of the spirit brings, petty mindedness and a conflictual mindset.
