Faith is indispensable, and the world at times does not seem to have quite enough of it. It can and has accomplished what seems to be the impossible.

In more than half the nations of our world, torture certifies that the form of government is tyranny. Only tyranny, no matter how camouflaged, needs and employs torturers. Torture has no ideology.
