Why?
“Among the seven billion or so people on this planet, there exists thirty-six who are better than all the rest of us put together. Thirty-six pure souls. Deep down, these people are genuinely good - so much so that they make up for the darkness and sins committed by the other six billion and change.”“The Pure are the only thing that stops God from saying ‘Enough already!' and wiping the world clean and starting over. Noah's Flood happened because there were too few Pure in the world.”“The Second World War happened because five of the Pure had been found and murdered. The Dark Ages? Eight Pure had been killed, and as a result, the world was plunged into centuries of misery, ignorance, and plague.”“When one of the thirty-six learns he is pure, he loses that essential goodness and stops being pure. And, as a result, the world becomes a tiny bit darker, steps a tiny bit closer to ruin.”
