2. A problem with God's law gets fixed with a donation and a special dispensation from the Church.
Sadly true enough for a priesthood on the take...BUT...
God's spiritual law of sowing and reaping seems to have come home to roost more than once hereabouts....
Especially the reflection on your first additional comment: The sins of the father... will be visited down to the third and fourth generation.

Some people who try to defy the law of gravity only end up proving that scientific thesis once again....
Not only Micheal... but JFK Jr.... as well!
You can't turn that winged-wonder sideways and upside down -- without mimicking the flight path and ultimate landing velocity of a free-falling refrigerator...

Actually, a free-falling refrigerator would fall more slowly than JFKJr's plane...
