4. Section 111 (Beta Version) 1) Joseph, my son, I can’t believe you did it again. Here you are in Salem, trying to get the church out of debt and, in the process, you might end up looking silly. 2) One of these days, you’ll finally understand that, as God, I just might know a thing or two.

For once, trust me on this.
