no Josemaria

unlike you I choose to

live in the real world

- but I appreciate your concern

- it's not concern TManolo

it's love

our Lord said love and love

was what he ment

and we love each other

no ?

Josemaria ,the truth is...

that we were born alone

and we die alone

all we have in between is a battle

that I want to win it

The rest the nonsense

well ,I will leave you

call me

I'll come I promise

you don't give up ,do you ?

it may help you to find some meaning

for your suffering ,Manolo

suffering has a meaning

it's meaningless

if you can show me otherwise

I'll kiss your ass that's my promise

I know what it is to

be angry at life

please be careful where

that leads you to ,Manolo

sheep

around that time that Josemaria

got a call from god

I also got a call from on of old

friend of my fathers

huh Toress

good morning

well ?

- a spy ?

- yes ,you ?

but I expected somthing more

with the king gone ,Spain has lost

center of gravity

which we will now recreate

by force if it needs to be

and other means

- but our government is elected it's popular

- it's time is over

The Government is a rotten apple, just

shake it and maggots appear.

maggots ?

socialists who want

a socialist state,

stalinists who want

a Stalinist state,

anarchists who want no state at all

- Manolo we want to create a new Spain

- a united Spain

- plans with blood ,if it's necessary...

- resurrected...great

- and it want's war as before

- and admire

Exactly, that's right!

Are we clear!

they called us fascists

we called them communists

really ,the war was much

complicated than that

but many prefer to see it in

those simpelified terms(manner)

three years later ,half a milion people

were dead

most of them civilians

but even in times like these,

some people are more interested

in hads and shoes

I thought you were going to buy

a new shoes

yes..I was but somthing else came up

what was that ?

- no I met a lady who...

- who needed a hat

- and some breakfast

- yes ,and some lunch

thank you

sit down please Peter ,Isidore

so ?

This group that moves

you from your homes ,what's it called?

we don't have a name mama

we just refer it as "Gods work"

in Latin would sound better

Opus Dei.

I know your donkey may like funds

but the work has found it's name

what's next ?

the communist's strike killed my father

now it was my turn to strike

get him out of the cat

Unionist rabble ...

take him

Let us show you

how God loke like

where is your gun ?

shitthing his pants
