If Truth is taken away from us, then Right and Wrong are taken from us as well. If we don't know Right and Wrong, then we can't, we won't control ourselves, but will look to someone else to bring order through brute force and raw power. We will be controlled by a tyrant, and we will no longer be free.
Frank PerettiSin is the Monster we love to deny. It is crouching at the door and it wants you, but you must overcome it.
Frank PerettiLet's be honest: Ignoring is acting, and nothing more โ acting as though the words or actions of your oppressors don't hurt. You hear the words, you feel the insults, and you bear the blows.
Frank PerettiThese humans are only of flesh, of mud, and I suggest there is one force stronger than their zeal for God: their own self-righteousness! We will make them proud, pure in their own eyes, vindictive, unjust judges over each other, and stir up such a noise among them that the simplest prayer will not be uttered!
