The reason why God commanded us to not kill in the 10 Commandments, no less, is because God creates humans and prohibits humans to take His role.

Thanks for your insightful posts.

I am convinced that the preferential choice for the poor is a source of extraordinary renewal both for the Church and for society, if we can only set ourselves free of our self-centeredness and open our ears to their cry.

It is well worth our time to read the complete text of Pope Leo's words.

I think the phrase, "the preferential choice of the poor," is an excellent description of the Bible teaching from Genesis to Revelation. Thank you Catholic church and Pope Leo.

That is a tremendous and profound truth. Thanks for posting this from Pope Francis. Your posts are appreciated and I always read them.

Thank you. Hate is a very powerful force, but love is greater. No greater love or power has been shown than that of the Son of God on the cross. Self-giving love is a mighty force, especially in the hands of our loving God.

"Touch the hearts of those imprisoned by hatred," is a prayer that I will pray with you. What a profound thought and worthy of bringing to the Lord. Thanks so much.

Isaiah is one of my favorite books in the Bible because it speaks so profoundly to our times. I'll have to read chapter 34 today. Thanks.

My wife and I just finished listening to "Agent to the Stars." Science fiction is fun and entertaining. You also slip in some excellent history between the pages. Thanks.

I think your readers would love a sequel to Starter Villain. My wife and I are laughing our heads off at it. Great job!

My wife and I have started listening to "Starter Villain" on Audible. I will have to watch my driving, because of the laughter. Thanks for bringing so much fun to your readers.
