Book opened to these lines like I was meant to read them.

"If you only knew how many times I've heard, 'Our Lord is a jealous lover.'

But he is also Rousseau who dumped his bastard children in an orphanage. Rousseau who had no care for what the social contract did to the women he took as lovers and then left as lovers. Rousseau who goes on and on about breastfeeding and natural motherhood like a man who has no idea."
