No founder of any world religion known to men ever dared say a thing like that!

Turkey, Iran, China, India, Japan. They are all different. They are all unique.

We get one story, you and I, and one story alone. God has established the elements, the setting and the climax and resolution. It would be a crime not to venture out, wouldn't it?" -Donald Miller,Through Painted Deserts.
