You know, David, for many men belief is a place to crawl for safety. Of course, they will fear and accuse you. Your writings are a danger to their safety.
Fr. David Telemond:
It is strange. When a president dies, he's replaced within an hour. When a king dies, long live the king. When a pope dies, everything stops.
Piotr Ilyich Kamenev:
Every day we ask ourselves what can we do about it before the nightmare turns itself into a mushroom cloud blotting out the sun.
