From darkness unto light!

Once I walked in spiritual darkness. I was blinded by the night around me. I could not see, I could not believe, and I had no hope. I was like the vast majority of people in the world today who walk in spiritual darkness and without any real purpose for living, and without hope.

How great is that darkness which enshrouds the world in its thick cloud of evil and hopelessness and despair!

Those who persist to walk in darkness do so because they love the darkness, and they love all the evil that is present in the darkness. Because of the darkness, some people would rather spend their time in a dark dingy barroom, crying over their beer, so to speak, than to be among
