Theologians and other clerks,
You won't understand this book,
-- However bright your wits --
If you do not meet it humbly,
And in this way, Love and Faith
Make you surmount Reason, for
They are the protectors of Reason's house.”

As an early education specialist, I applaud the intensity of interest and interaction at a mutual level…and while not totally able to see, it looks like a couple other adults are attempting some engagement behind the mayor and child…early ed is about showing up for the children

“The works of mercy are the opposite of the works of war, feeding the hungry, sheltering the homeless, nursing the sick, visiting the prisoner. But we are destroying crops, setting fire to villages and to the people in them. We are not performing works of mercy but works of war.”

I hope to be proven wrong but as a preacher’s kid myself from a fundamentalist background, I have said Talarico reminds me of Fetterman and Jimmy Swaggart…slick and persuasive but when pushed will cry about how he didn’t want to but had to do whatever
