I wanted to ask him if there was any reason why the Catholic Church would consider him for sainthood. I wanted to open up his dictionary and find the definitions for faith, hope, goodness, sadness, tomato, son, mother, husband, virginity, Jesus, wood, sacrifice, pain, foot, wife, thumb, hand, bread, and sex. \"Do you believe in God?\" I asked my father. \"God has lots of potential,\" he said. \"When you pray,\" I asked him. \"What do you pray about?\" \"That's none of your business,\" he said. We laughed. We waited for hours for somebody to help us. What is an Indian? I lifted my father and carried him across every border.”",
