Traumatic Laceration The sun was high in the sky on a mid summer day and my mom had just cooked me a juicy hamburger with a side of seasoned home fries. An hour later, I decided to go paddleboarding on Annabessacook Lake to burn off all the greasy fries.

We are able to interact with millions of other people through social media networks – regardless of gender and age. What we seek and desire is “MODERNITY” – in the way we dress, the way we work, the way we live in this society - and in this process, religion becomes the first casualty to criticism.

"Violet...?" My…
