Someone asked
him accusingly
“Do you pray?”
“Yes,” he replied.
“Why?” someone
asked. “Because I
don’t have all the
answers,” he said.
“Would you stop
if you did?” some-
one asked. “If I did
what?” he asked.
“Have all the answers,”
someone said. “Do you
think if I had as
many questions as
Socrates had before
someone handed
him the hemlock,
someone would
hand me the hem-
lock, too?” he asked.
“But what if you had
all the answers?” some-
one asked. “What if I
did?” he asked. “Well,
would you still pray?”
someone asked.
“Would I?” he asked
someone.
