How Many? A Plea, a Lament, and a Declaration

The Try Try Again Project (TTAP) is a one man band, a 70 year old singer-songwriter who, like John Lennon, imagines a world without turf wars, without "holy wars," and without partisan political battles for material power.
However, unlike Lennon, TTAP suggests that the problem is not religion or patriotism -- at least not true religion or true patriotism. Rather, the problem is disorted religion to achieve material political ends -- which is why it seems like the end of the world.
But it's not the end of the world. It's the end of an age, as foretold by all the genuine prophets of the world's religions.
Hear TTAP's song, How Many?, and read the lyrics at the same time on YouTube.
