My name in the rest of the world is Malachi Patrick Michael McKevitt. I come from a long line of n'er-do-wells, rebels, and roust-abouts. Most of my surviving relatives in Ireland, I've been told, are in County Kerry.

"Whenever we read the obscene stories, the voluptuous debaucheries, the cruel and torturous executions, the unrelenting vindictiveness with which more than half the Bible is filled, it would be more consistent that we call it the word of a demon than the word of God. It is a history of wickedness that has served to corrupt and brutalize mankind." - Thomas Paine
