What is it about, "never leave nor forsake you" do you not understand?

Well, if the OP’s wish came true and someone like Flycatcher was in charge of biblical law enforcement then I’d be put to death for apostasy.... I’m sure you can understand why that would leave me feeling a little forsaken, not unlike the countless thousands that suffered the same fate during the inquisition.
