World Peace is the easy pageant answer just as Jesus is the easy children’s Sunday school answer. True world peace, though, is hardly and easy feat. In a world that is often at war with one another, and with people who are often at war with themselves, Jesus is the one answer.

Why Do We Expect World Peace From Miss America, But Not Jesus?

World Peace is one of just two easy answers in life. It’s the correct response when a pageant contestant is asked what she would most want to see happen during her lifetime. This response is the mocked canned answer made famous in the movie Miss Congeniality. The...
