Where do you stand?  Are the events of 9/11 a wake-up call for non-beleivers living in a secular world?  Are these the prophesized "end times?"  A survey conducted in 5 boroughs of New York City found that 57% of the people were praying more, and 40% were reading their Bible once again.  Or do we lie in the wake of our own doing - America's quest for world dominion?
