Peace be with you, Papa, and bless your for your honesty by acknowledging that “…both strength of mind and body are necessary, strength which in the last few months has deteriorated in me to the extent that I have had to recognize my incapacity to adequately fulfill the ministry entrusted to me.”

Why does the state regulate human affairs?
It is because of an overriding sense of justice, an overwhelming sense of right and wrong.
