This is not always obvious to you.

And after all, only Whitman and Crane and Williams, of the American poets, are better than the movies.

One helpless villager, two helpless villagers, three helpless villagers . . .

Bill WattersonWhen you look at food as an ethical issue in the Christian tradition, you don't find very much about it. You don't find, as you do in the Jewish or Islamic or Hindu traditions, a lot of restrictions saying you can eat this but you can't eat that. But what you do find is the idea that gluttony is a sin and that it's something that we ought to be ashamed of.
