The Seventh Day Adventist Church believes that it was specially chosen by God to prepare the world for the Second Coming of His Son Jesus.

I've had horror movies thrown at me and I just don't want to do any because violence isn't really good for society.

I decided to take God and organized religion seriously, and to reject the secular life which in my teens had looked attractive because it allowed me to act in any way that I wanted.

Looking back, I wince at the careless way I tossed out my opinions.

In my right-wing politics of the time, I held that unemployment was usually the fault of the unemployed.

I now attend non-orthodox synagogues, and study little during the secular week.

I've often thought that my lack of intimacy with those around me is the fault of those around me.
