The world of the ego is hell on earth, the quest for power to enhance one's ego is the deepest hell of all. We are watching this morality play in our daily news. I have had to limit my media diet because a soul can only take so much depravity without being lost. I imagine the Universe laughing to itself saying, "Will they ever learn?"Dianenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8647562459433740241.post-77656654109844608672017-12-28T15:22:53.440-05:002017-12-28T15:22:53.440-05:00Herod's motivation for the killing is that the...Herod's motivation for the killing is that the Three Wise Men told him a King had been born and they were going to visit him.
