That was a good story installment. Good mix of narration and dialogue. Nicely done. Keep up the good work :)
Edit note: Never start a paragraph with a question, but you could end it. Place the following together...
His mind drifts back home. I wonder what Mom is doing right now?

It sure looks like everything is being done that can be to force acceptance every kind of person in the world but Christians. Hatred is being taught against anyone for Christ. Thanks for sharing.

This has been a great story, and one that describes what's happening thee days. So much of that is going on. Society has ignored God completely, and looked what happened. Everything is out of control. I try to do what Jesus said and love everyone, but sometimes it's hard. Keep writing!

Your post captures the essence of the friction between elements of our society, those who look to the constitution, and those who look to the Bible, and how far apart they have become but also how the extremes can be so uncivil and so ungodly towards each other. The problems of one little boy seem caught between the argument. I thought you had a great character in the police chief who goes after Sean and talks to him man to man. The dialogue is really crisp and realistic. Great emotions surging underneath it as well. It also has a happy ending. We need more happy endings. estory

I haven't read the other chapters so I came in with no background to the story. Yet I found it interesting and engrossing, and it was well written. The themes you are considering here are very timely and relevant, and will be increasingly so. Thank you for an excellent read.

Comment from Rosemary Everson1
Liked your story so much. Christian beliefs in school and the ability of students to pray in school has never been outlawed by the U.S. Supreme Court. Each student is free to pray alone or in a group of other kids. The only stipulations are that the actions cannot be disruptive or infringe upon the rights of others who wish to conduct themselves in other ways.

This concludes the discussion of an important theme- what part should religion pay in an increasingly secular society? In many parts of the world different sects within religious denomination can be bitterly opposed. States increasingly bar religious education. It takes courage today to call a

Comment from Stephanie Rollins
The dialogue was magnificent, not trite as it often is with other stories that I have read. I was wondering throughout the story, so you had me hooked. Great story.

Comment from royowen
Prejudice is a shocker, and by the example of Adolph Hitler and Germany, we have a move of what mass mis guidance and prejudice can do. Also misinformation, and the fact that people replacing perfectly working commandments like "love thy neighbour," is being subclaused, by new humanistic ones. Beautifully written Mike, blessings Roy
