Saint Luke, living in the Roman times, a healer, a man of God, but seemingly out to prove that God's wonders are God's punishment. I am half way through this novel, filled with the destruction of an empire ruled by a man who makes all the rules, but tries to save his empire.
It is difficult for me to understand how humanity seems to constantly repeat its mistakes: wars, killing, destruction of its land and resources, and how corruption takes a foothold on society. And then we begin again…..maybe the destruction of our beautiful planet will eventually lead to the beginning of a new society far, far away?
Time will tell, but my hopes for a moral, giving, righteous existence here on earth are primarily for the lives of my grandchildren.
