The Spiritual Impact of Richard Crouch
To build up kingdoms or to obliterate entire cities, who really makes these
crucial decisions? If only mankind possessed the ability to merely decipher
these inevitable events. People arrogantly assume that mankind has
independently brought forth civilization's advancements that are now taken for
granted, yet the greatest minds that comprise the earth's population are held
captive to the weakest components of the populace; therefore, the endless
supply of tangible relics, provided by society's technological and developing
tendencies, which relentlessly bring forth the reduction of earth's population
are not only far beyond our understanding, but are also petty excuses for our
excessive egos to surpass the confines of our own intelligence. Implying that
where mankind now resides is a result of the accomplishments of its own
inhabitants would also imply that the creator of this world we live in has
little to no understanding of the creation itself. Religion decides whether

grandfather can only be interpreted as demeaning when compared to the pride
that he would acquire through the knowledge of the instrumental work of Christ
that was pursued through his existence in implanting religion into this life of
mine that he cherished so dearly. The loss of this extraordinary loved one
should have left this family incapable of recovery. When faced with such a
tragedy, it would seem as if only mourning and abdication are capable of
following. Inevitable exceptions are made for the loss of a man of my
grandfather's caliber in this world. God had other unimaginable ideas as to
how Richard Crouch's random death would be recollected. My grandfather would
leave nothing short of a miracle in our hearts to forever remind us to remain
humble.
This gentleman, my grandfather, was an incredible being of unyielding
faith. Even when my adolescence prevented me from understanding the importance
of the integrity of such an idol, Richard's presence was
