Fiction is not the opposite of truth-indeed, it is sometimes the most persuasive vehicle for it.

'Lord Foulgrin's Letters' by Randy Alcorn explores the complex relationship between fiction and truth. The author suggests that fictional narratives can convey deeper truths and insights than mere factual accounts might. Through storytelling, readers can engage with ideas and emotions that resonate on a personal level, making the truth more relatable and compelling.

This perspective highlights the power of fiction as a means to communicate profound truths about the human experience. By using imaginative stories, authors have the ability to challenge perceptions and evoke reflection, demonstrating that fiction can be just as valid a path to understanding reality as non-fiction.

People pontificate, "Suicide is selfishness." Career churchmen like Pater go a step further and call in a cowardly assault on the living. Oafs argue this specious line for varying reason: to evade fingers of blame, to impress one's audience with one's mental fiber, to vent anger, or just because one lacks the necessary suffering to sympathize. Cowardice is nothing to do with it - suicide takes considerable courage. Japanese have the right idea. No, what's selfish is to demand another to endure an intolerable existence, just to spare families, friends, and enemies a bit of soul-searching.
