Anybody can be good in the country.
There are no temptations there.

The man behind the curtain
- Damien
- I like words, images, graphic design, well-turned phrases, doodling, humor and profundity. These are found in every quarter and I'm always on the hunt. I was rescued (in November, 1974) from guilt and a stubborn irrational belief in an impersonal chance universe (with the accompanying hopelessness). I'm now convinced that nothing is more obvious or worthy of our attention than our Creator and the one true ancient path. Only Jesus has the words of everlasting life. Like John Newton "I once was lost but now am found, was blind but now I see."

Apparently temptation is the ability to do what one likes: "When one is in the country one amuses other people. When one is in town, one amuses oneself."
Ah, but we must remember Hawthorne:
"The road grew wilder and drearier and more faintly traced, and vanished at length, leaving him in the heart of the dark wilderness, still rushing onward, with the instinct that guides mortal man to evil."
ha. except that dude in Tennesee whose crematory stopped working which compelled him to store hundreds of dead bodies and give fake ashes to the families. oh DEAR. that was close to Covenant.
....what happened?
