God help us all if the bulk of his followers are anything at all like yourself in mind and spirit, Lief.
At present, as far as I know I'm one of a kind.

I'm not trying to use force of arms to push these ideas into government. If they were established in law, though, I think they should be enforced. Just to clarify that.

I have been looking very hard at these things I'm now talking about, and I hope I'm looking at them in a clear, straight and honest way. I know you believe I'm not, and I thank you for your warning.

I don't know what to say to this.
