Good laws, enforced, are so important to humanity. A good law is one that protects the innocent, deters the wicked, and punishes the predators. Yet, one civilization after another has fallen short of this ideal.

Peter, how do you carry on when humanity is so disappointing? I have found myself becoming more and more introverted over the years, reluctant to interact with masses who might harm me. Too many of the good-hearted people have been lead astray by corrupt corporate media. I admire your ability to still take a stand. You seem to have more fortitude than most of us. How do you do it?

At the risk of sounding maudlin, I have no choice in the matter.

I am alive solely because God has kept me alive to fulfill some purpose. But for His Will, I logically should not still be alive.

I don't pretend to know exactly what purpose God intends for me. I only know that there is a purpose, a reason I am here. It would be beyond foolish to seek to avoid it.

“Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think of anything as being from ourselves, but our sufficiency is from God.” - II Corinthians 3:5

God is our sufficiency.

And you are valued, Peter.
