Most of us live our lives such that the world is a better place because of what we do.
Of course, not everyone can say that, but suppose you’re former Texas sheriff and sitting U.S. representative Troy Nehls. Do you really want to publicly admit that innocent people, as well as the nation as a whole, one that you’ve sworn to serve and protect, are suffering because of you?

I have such respect for Pascal that I considered naming our son after him. (My wife wasn’t having it. Maybe if we lived in France?)

I counter that this is not how we accept or reject religious tenets.
