Wednesday, April 20, 2011. God Sleeps in Rwanda by Joseph Sebarenzi with Laura Ann Mullane. God Sleeps in Rwanda has been an interesting journey for me as a reader. I do not read a lot of non-fiction and know even less about what's going on in the world around me. I know, I know. Joseph Sebarenzi's experience has opened my eyes to the incredible circumstances that exist on the outskirts of my sheltered world. Posted by Denine Laberge. God Sleeps in Rwanda.

This kind of immortality comes at a pretty steep price, however, as it would cause a pretty serious population problem. The Declaration introduces the solution to this problem. Those who stretch out their days indefinitely agree to not have children. Well, those of you who have read The Declaration.
