Read the latest headlines and it will be impossible to deny that evil is real.
Yet evil is never its own thing, but a corruption of what is good.

To call something evil is to acknowledge some standard of good.
Not preference or taste. A reality that binds us all.

So, if evil is real then good is more than just a mood.
It is law, it is a measure.

Virtue is not a hobby.
It is submission to what does not bend.

There is no neutral ground here.
Every one of your choices leans toward what is good, true, and beautiful or away from it.

Goodbye. Deus tecum, still in our speech
