AND WHEN HE FALLETH

"Believe? In a deily long dead? -I would rather be a pagan suckléd in creeds outworn;Whith faärtytales fill'd up in head; Thoughts of the Book stillborn."
"Shadow of annoyance -Ne'er come hither!...And when He falleth, He falleth like Lucifer, Ne'er to ascend again..."

[ Dialog from "And when He Falleth" ]

[Male Voice]
That cross you wear around your neck;is it only a decoration, or are you atrue Christian believer?
[Female Voice]
Yes, I believe - truly

Then I want you to remove it at once!- and never to wear it within this castleagain! Do you know how a falcon is trained my dear? Her eyes are sown shut. Blinded temporarily she suffers the whims of her God patiently, untilher will is submerged and she learns to serve -as your God taught and blinded you withcrosses.
You had me take off my cross because it offended....

It offended no-one. No - it simply appears to me to be discourteous to... to wearthe symbol of a deity long dead.

My ancestors tried to find it. And to open the door that seperates us from our Creator.
But you need no doors to find God. If you believe....Believe?! If you believe you are gullible.Can you look around this world and believein the goodness of a god who rules it?Famine, Pestilence, War, Disease and Death!They rule this world.

There is also love and life and hope.

Very little hope I assure you. No. If a god of love and life ever did exist... he is long since dead.
Someone... something rules in his place.
