In this basilica, erected in his honor shortly after he died,
we find a series of colorful frescoes, painted by the great Master Giotto,
which tell the life of the saint, like in a huge sacred comic strip.
In this image, we see a decisive moment.

When people are joyful they are always good; whereas when they are good they are seldom joyful.

According to Dr. Felicijan:
Jefferson evidently considered the ancient ritual of the Installation of the Dukes of Carinthia a common law precedent and the confirmation of the Contractual Theory upon which he based his claim for the American Independence.
On the other initialed page was a description of the installation of the Dukes of Carinthia, a Slovenian ritual which may have contributed greatly to the founding of our own great country.
On one page was Bodin's definition and characterization of a tyrant, which was quite similar in concept to phrases used in the Declaration of Independence.
In Jefferson's copy of Bodin's work Professor Felicijan discovered that Jefferson had initialed two pages.
To be properly wicked,
you do not have to break the Law.
Just observe it to the letter.

Mr. LAUSCHE. Mr. President, recently a book entitled “The Genesis of the Contractual Theory and the Installation of the Dukes of Carinthia” was published by Prof. Joseph Felicijan a member of the teaching staff of St. Johns College, Cleveland.
How should we live today?

One man had radical answers to all these questions.

POPE FRANCIS: A MAN OF HIS WORD (2018) 🙂
A king dreamt that he saw a king in paradise and a priest in hell.
He wondered how this could be then he heard a Voice say,
“The king is in paradise because he respected priests. The priest is in hell because he compromised with kings.”

Every path leads to TWETCH 🙂
Present Reality cannot really be rejected or accepted.
To run away from it is like running away from your feet.
To accept it is like kissing your lips.
All you need to do is see, understand, and be at rest.

Pious old lady, after the war:
“God was very good to us.
We prayed and prayed, so all the bombs fell on the other side of the town!”

Words (and concepts) are indicators, not reflections, of reality.
But, as the mystics of the East declare.
"When the Sage points to the moon
all that the idiot sees is the finger!”
