Today is Yom Hashoah
I found this in GD and thought it was significant because it shows the role religion can play in your life and death.


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yom_HaShoah

Yom haShoah Ve'Hagvura or Yom HaShoah (יום השואה yom ha-sho’āh, יום הזיכרון לשואה ולגבורה-Yom ha-zikaron la-Shoah v'la-Gvura), "Holocaust Martyrs' Remembrance Day" or, literally, "Remembrance day for The Holocaust and Heroism", takes place on the 27th day of the month Nisan, in the Hebrew calendar, which falls in the early spring. It is held every year in remembrance of the 6,000,000+ Jews who perished in the Holocaust. It is a national memorial day in Israel.

3. We say "never again", but do we really mean it?
