Making Peace

One of the things ancient Druids were known for was their ability to make peace.  They were so respected in this role that they could walk between two opposing armies and the battle would completely stop.  


There are several groups in the world today who have no business fighting each other.  ;They have bigger problems to worry about and would be significantly better off if they could get along.  I am thinking specifically of the Catholics and Protestants in Northern Ireland, the Sunnis and Shiites in Iraq, and the Palestinians and Israelis in the Near East as well as many others.  


As Latter-Day Saints, we don't need to take sides in any of these conflicts,   We have reason in our traditions to support both sides and encourage them to get along.


So, it seems to me that LDS Druids could play a valuable role in stopping the pointless fighting, smacking the various parties upside their collective heads where necessary and getting them to sit down and work things out so they can get along.
