[Magdalen] TEC bishop fatally hits bicyclist in hit and run?

[John Robison]

I also didn't mean to imply that I wanted people to be silent. I finally
found someone who was able to express what I have been feeling, at least in
part:

And yes, Georgia, you're the epitome of grace.

"Among the repulsions of atheism for me has been its drastic
uninterestingness as an intellectual position." - John Updike

"There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old's life:
The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that
often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading
to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with
the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs."  ~John Rogers
