I suppose that in Haiti people don't pray for closure, or for healing, but for daily survival, life and death issues. And I guess that those knife-to -the-throat survival needs are very linked into power, money, import, export and elections in certain countries like Haiti. God and the gun are close friends in places where continuity between governments is an exception. That's probably why so many priests in Latin America got tortured as leftist guerrillas over the years, and why the Chinese Government purged the Falun Gongsect. Especially in poor countries, it could be that the kingdom of heaven is indeed at hand!
