- That cross you wear around your neck;
is it only a decoration, or are you a
true Christian believer?- Yes, I believe – truly.
- Then I want you to remove it at once!
And never to wear it within this castle
again! Do you know how a falcon is trained my
dear? Her eyes are sewn shut. Blinded temporarily
she suffers the whims of her God patiently, until
her will is submerged and she learns to serve -
as your God taught and blinded you with
crosses.- You had me take off my cross because it
offended….- It offended no-one. No – it simply appears
to me to be discourteous to… to wear
the symbol of a deity long dead.
My ancestors tried to find it. And to open
the door that seperates us from our Creator.- But you need no doors to find God.
If you believe….- Believe?! If you believe you are…gullible.
Can you look around this world and believe
in the goodness of a god who rules it?
Famine, Pestilence, War, Disease and Death!
They rule this world.- There is also love and life and hope.
- Very little hope I assure you. No. If a god
of love and life ever did exist…he is long
since dead. Someone…something rules in his
place.
