I especially appreciated your reflection in the last paragraph, before the Bible quotations. Thank you, Will, for your "spot on" commentary.

Just wanted to let you know: this is a FINE piece. Well-reasoned to the degree that I retweeted it. I agree 100%.

Thanks so much! I appreciate it.

It’s certainly upsetting the bar that we are setting for our society. We have to aim higher!!

Agreed! Unfortunately, I feel the current administration is the lowest we've ever been ... it concerns and saddens me.

But in terms of having social, economic, and physical existential threats coinciding, brought on or, at least exacerbated by an administration: yep. It’s bad
