Terror


Imagine, if you will, a lad of about 6 or 7. Laying on a sofa in the living room of a small brick house in the mid 50's watching a black and white television in the corner.


Imagine this lad stiff from having his neck out of place due to a cold fan blowing on it all night.


Imagine the wonder of this small boy watching Oral Roberts preaching fire and brimstone to the masses.


Imagine the terror of seeing Oral Roberts talking to a boy, about his age, in an iron lung that was wheeled out on the stage.


Imagine the fear of thinking " This is what is going to happen to me!"


Different times - Different terror
