And it should be prosecuted pursuant to the existing laws.

Humanity has always had a nostalgia for the freedom that is only beauty, that is only real; life, plenitude, light.

In humanity, born again is an experience when the teachings of natural phenomena become real, and the “born again” acquires a personal relationship with the planet Earth.

With respect to the death penalty, I believe that a majority of the Supreme Court will one day accept that when the state punishes with death, it denies the humanity and dignity of the victim and transgresses the prohibition against cruel and unusual punishment.
