proverbiosIt is true that traditional Christianity is losing some of its appeal among Americans, but that is a religious, not political, matter.

Truly, there are terrible primal arcana of earth which had better be left unknown and unevoked; dread secrets which have nothing to do with man, and which man may learn only in exchange for peace and sanity; cryptic truths which make the knower evermore an alien among his kind, and cause him to walk alone on earth. ~H.
