I can indeed hardly see how anyone ought to wish Christianity to be true for if so the plain language of the text seems to show that the men who do not believe, and this would include my father, brother and almost all of my friends, will be everlastingly punished. And this is a damnable doctrine.

I think it's great to see how they've grown up, not just as actors but as people. They're still very much the same kids that I met many years ago.
