Wow. Hits the nail right on idolatry's head. When are we going to start acknowledging and accepting our responsibility for what we make of this world?
You who offer wine, we are waiting on the lip Of the ocean of ruin. Take this moment as a gift; for the distance Between the lip and the mouth is not all that great.
