The following is a story about a program at a maximum security prison in California to do something about the glaring and unacceptable problem that faces us -- our prisons do not reform nor improve the behavior of those whom we sentence there.
For me, prisons are a good example of our failure to think through our problems and, instead, simply delay solving them to another day. Locking people up and literally throwing away the key is not the way to be a more peaceful and fulfilling nation.
The following video demonstrates a way out of the darkness which now surrounds us. It is a way in which people of faith should approach evil in the world -- through transformation rather than punishment. What do you think?
