How Glorious an Act of Faith to place these documents in hiding - knowing they would be found after the Demons had been defeated - knowing they would be preserved and appreciated - How Remarkable an Act of Faith

Thank you for posting this. We all need to be reminded of the courage of the human spirit and the horrors that mankind can and does continue to commit. It is easy when living in the safety of CA to forget. We cannot forget. Mankind is not trustworthy. Only God is.
