Great Regulars: When the narrator wants to kill


the venomous serpent, Uncle Walt says, "There's worse than snakes," and he lets the animal leave in peace. The nephew learns danger is the natural order of this cosmos, including the unspoken realm of human interactions. Yet revenge is not the appropriate response. Here Sheldon expounds a natural theology, based on lessons that arise in nature.
