The Greatest Drama Ever Staged

That God should play the tyrant over man is a dismal story of unrelieved oppression; that man should play the tyrant over man is the usual dreary record of human futility; but that man should play the tyrant over God and find Him a better man than himself is an astonishing drama indeed.

—Dorothy L. Sayers, The Greatest Drama Ever Staged

Pereant qui ante nos nostra dixerent.

University Paradigm

In the last days mockers will come with their mocking, following after their own lusts, and saying, "Where is the promise of His coming? For ever since the fathers fell asleep, all continues just as it was from the beginning of creation." For they are willfully ignorant of this fact, that by the word of God the heavens existed long ago and the earth was formed out of water and by water.

—2 Peter 3:3-6, NASB
