Remembering that only a few years ago men, women, and even children, were imprisoned, tortured and burned, for having expressed in an exceedingly mild and gentle way, the ideas entertained by me, I congratulate myself that calumny is now the pulpit's last resort. The old instruments of torture are kept only to gratify curiosity; the chains are rusting away, and the demolition of time has allowed even the dungeons of the Inquisition to be visited by light. The church, impotent and malicious, regrets, not the abuse, but the loss of her power, and seeks to hold by falsehood what she gained by cruelty and force, by fire and fear. Christianity cannot live in peace with any other form of faith. If that religion be true, there is but one savior, one inspired book, and but one little narrow grass-grown path that leads to heaven. Such a religion is necessarily uncompromising, unreasoning, aggressive and insolent. Christianity has held all other creeds and forms in infinite contempt, divided the world into enemies and friends, and verified the awful declaration of its founder–a declaration that wet with blood the sword he came to bring, and made the horizon of a thousand years lurid with the fagots' flames. . Robert G. Ingersoll

Monika Barbara Potocki

I mean he was crying and Dekka prayed with him and he tried to fry his own brain just like he did with Harry only I guess it didn’t work, I guess he couldn’t do it, so Sam . .” She swallowed. “Anyone have some water?”“ What about Sam?” Astrid demanded.“ He did it for him. Sam. I mean, he . Hunter was, you know . . so Sam.” She pantomimed raising her hands, like Sam, like he would do when using his power. Astrid closed her eyes and crossed herself.“ Rest in peace, ” Edilio said and crossed himself as well.“ Sam burned the boy?” Howard asked. Then, bitterly sarcastic said, “Yeah, you all pray to Jesus. Because Jesus is really providing a lot of help here. Sounds to me like Sam was the one doing what had to be done. . Michael Grant

Girl Without HandsWalking through the ruinson your way to workthat do not look like ruinswith the sunlight pouring overthe seen worldlike hail or meltedsilver, that brightand magnificent, each leafand stone quickened and specific in it, and you can't hold it, you can't hold any of it. Distance surrounds you, marked out by the ends of your armswhen they are stretched to their fullest. You can go no farther than this, you think, walking forward, pushing the distance in front of youlike a metal cart on wheelswith its barriers and horizontals. Appearance melts away from you, the offices and pyramidson the horizon shimmer and cease. No one can enter that circleyou have made, that clean circleof dead space you have madeand stay inside, mourning because it is clean. Then there's the girl, in the white dress, meaning purity, or the failureto be any colour. She has no hands, it's true. The scream that happened to the airwhen they were taken offsurrounds her now like an aureoleof hot sand, of no sound. Everything has bled out of her. Only a girl like thiscan know what's happened to you. If she were here she wouldreach out her arms towardsyou now, and touch youwith her absent handsand you would feel nothing, but you would betouched all the same. Margaret Atwood
