CALVIN SYNOD HERALD- 8 -AMERIKAI MAGYAR REFORMÁTdSOK LAPJA TRUTHFUL REFLECTIONS We, the people, living in this bloodiest 20th century, approaching its termination, are the inheritors of the two fatal “peace treaties" - ending the two world wars - Trianon and Yalta. Both were falsely named. They were not peace-making pacts, but rather, Edicts of Warmeasures. Both were dictates of the superpowers. The first one by Britain and France and sealed by our own misled President Wilson; and the second by Britain, France and Stalin of Russia, and sealed again by our own victimized President Franklin D. Roosevelt. The first one was never ratified officially by the U.S.A. - not to this very day. Neither came in the “shape of a dove" - both came in the shape of a vulture. These were not “peace pacts" - they were war bombs, equipped with highly explosive, igniting devices. Not instruments of ending war, but instruments for continuing wars. Unfortunately, these kinds of instruments will not be able to end wars by any means, at least not in these few remaining years of the twentieth century - possibly not even in the forthcoming 21st century! We cannot close our eyes. All of us have to read productive information and act wisely and effectively, in the interest of peace, if it ever comes. We are relentlessly subjected to a great many false exposes of local and international scandalous happenings. Our Calvin Synod Herald strives time after time again and again, above all else to be the instrument of truth, and reflecting the truth in all our writings about the subjects that concern one and all. Our “Book Corner” below additionally aims to recommend only constructive readings that are in harmony with our “truthful reflections”. The perspective at the end of this year of 1996 is still dismal - in fact, outright gloomy. Seven long years after the collapse of world-communism, our so-called Western Civilization still works in reverse! On these very days set your eyes on the most recent fatal events in Rowanda and Zaire; Chesnia and Bosnia; Yugoslavia and Afghanistan; Hong Kong and Israel; Iraq and Iran. Regardless of race, nations and languages: are we not all behaving like the under-grown Hutus' and the over-grown Tutsis’ all around the globe? How long as yet? What an approach to the next century, which will be a new millennium? Genes? Defects in Creation? Decline in Evolution? What??? The Spirit of Hungary by Stephen Sisa, Ontario, Canada.
