It is this article of faith that keeps me going in these dark times. It is a question of faith, particularly at historical moments such as the present, when injustice seems to reign unchallenged. I can't defend that belief with rational argument or historical evidence. But it is like Pascal's wager about his belief in a god -- the beneflts of believing it far outweigh the detriments of believing the contrary. The only life were living, I am convinced, is one dedicated to the proposition that in the end, justice will reign. Phyllis:
