		<description><![CDATA[Palestine-Israel is a mythic land. Stories from three faiths reinforce romanticized images in the hearts and minds of believers. What bearing do these stories have on the people who live there? How does the past hold captive those who call Palestine-Israel home? Can the people move forward while the world holds onto our romantic images?<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=looknorth.wordpress.com&amp;blog=2013868&amp;post=78&amp;subd=looknorth&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

In our postmodern crisis ‘wonder’ reigns among issues like ‘truth’ and ‘love’; but modern concepts like technocratic thinking, industrialism and capitalism have rendered ‘wonder’ irrelevant. ‘Wonder’ and ‘play’ (the soil in which wonder grows) do not contribute well to the gross national product.
