(A lone voice whispers)
In the twenty-first century, is this a frightening thing to read or see?
The abuse of all forms of humanity by such cruel people.
Bound by such evil pagan rituals. Linked to dark, insidious acts of depravity.
And being left with the silent question?
Will any God put us out of our misery, and punish those responsible with swift justice for so many unknown casualties?
