this attempt confirms, that a man loyal to his country can be useful at
any place anywhere he lives.

someone who takes upon himself the task to defend enlightened free thought
and to embed it into our culture and society.

freely is branded as an infidel. Have all my deepest respect for your liberal
project which I hope will soon see the light of day.
