Why do I keep fighting back?Using this puny voice in a world gone mad.Saying good things over and over againto a world so damaged that the existenceof goodness has become hard to credit.Believers believe despite all evidenceto the contrary.We also believe and we know that our evidence is worth believing in.Innocents and animals deserve safetyContinueContinue reading “Why?”
