That’s kind of one of the problems when everything is “fixed” by saying, “I’m very sorry for what I was accused of doing and I’ve asked God’s forgiveness…By the way, if you want to get closer to God, I have this deal on genuine Angel Dust blown to Earth from Heaven directly from Archangel Gabriel’s wings.”
