Pious Skullduggery


It's not Rod Serling's Twilight Zone; that's not it. It's not the Kardashian's reality show; that's not it. It's not Alfred Hitchcock, nor is it Norman Bates Psycho I, II, or III.


So what is it that plagues our world? What is the underlying, malevolent current that weighs heavily on the collective conscious of the morally aware?


Is it governmental or political? Is it the still-troubling Black and White color line? Is it Ricv vs. Poor - the have's and the have not's?


What is the persistent pestilence that gnaws at the core of humanities existence?
