It would be cool if Sam Fallen were real. Read about him in the previous post. But sadly, he's not. You see, the struggle for justice is not up to some guy in the sky. It is up to us and only us. If God took care of it all, what would be left for us to do? I'm an agnostic. You can believe anything you want. But the fact remains we still have ISIS, Neo-Nazis, pedophile priests, Klansmen, serial killers and on and on. If I were God, I would not be happy getting prayers wishing these groups away. Like any good parent, I'd want my children to be able to stand up and take care of bad shit on their own. There is no room for laziness or indifference when it comes to justice. We have to get up off our asses and do the dirty work ourselves.
I still get a kick out of Sam. I think he has more stories to tell. Who knows, maybe I'm wrong and he is real on some level. So yeah, he'll be back at some point. But that does not excuse us from unrelenting pursuit of justice.
