He would be alive with the hope of what he still could be. As it is, he's not even alive. He's just a corpse with a beating heart, and he will never rise out of the hole that he's dug for himself because he'll never even try. Shout as loud as you can, as loud as you have to, and don't ever stop. Sex is cheap and profane.
Property is cheap and profane.
Life is cheap and profane. Instead of accepting some responsibility for this fact, the Old Order seeks an easy way out. Look at the finger-pointing done by the Christian Right. It gushes with hypocritical lunacy. It could bring me to laughter, if it only it didn't pain me to tears.
