The darkness enshrouding God and obscuring values
is the real threat to our existence
and to the world in general.
If God and moral values,
the difference between good and evil,
remain in darkness,
then all other “lights” that put
such incredible technical feats within our reach,
are not only progress, but also dangers
that put us and the world at risk.
