For seeing that your book is so full of crafts, sleights, shifts, obliquities, and manifest untruths, it may be easily judged, that whatsover pretence be made of truth, yet nothing is less intended, than that truth should either have victory, or appear and be seen at all.” Oh the great love they have for each other. Wily will be an accessory and principal to mass genocide--287 first degree homocides. Jesus teaches that there is an afterlife which this scene invokes for consideration. Where are both men today in 2021?
