Morals

I hold that the creation of progeny, where feasible, represents the paramount achievement attainable in an individual’s lifetime. I affirm my belief in love, forgiveness, and the right to self-defense, and I practice gratitude, humility, and affection through prayer. Concerning the suffering prevalent in this world, I lament its existence, yet I attribute it to divine will. Regrettably, without adversity—such as the metaphor of skinned knees—there might be no foundation for existence itself.
