May we also pray for the (Orlando) perpetrator and those like him who regardless of religion wallow in the dark as death worshippers, who follow the idols of despair and violence, of hopelessness and intolerance, who have abandoned the God of many names but of one spirit and compassion, of love, life and light. 

Let us pray that we all be spared the vanity of self assertion that would include taking life or any other form of violence as resolution to our fears and uncertain differences.
