or we've lawfully collected thome even though the american called wasn't a target. same happens with 702. if you contact or call a terrorism or someone we are targeting overseas, you are an american and you have a conversation, even though you are not the target, that is collected and stored in a data base and what matters is how we treat that data and we protect it and don't use it willy-nilly and i don't know how we would operate otherwise. and that is -- i don't know how we would operate otherwise. i think what the american people want us to do is make sure we hold it to connect dots if it it turns out there is something bad in there but treat it like the information that it is, protect it and make sure it is handled in a responsible way. >> thank you mr. chairman. director, let me -- let me tell you a story about a hundred years ago, literally, my italian grandparents and my irish grand parents faced discrimination because of their religion. now that discrimination wasn't violence, it was economic. this is not unusual in this country at that time. i like to thin

i read thome children at an age appropriate level. please, i'm not -- nothing gruesome for them but i tell them this man -- a dear friend is an orthodox priest's wife today in suburban baltimore, that was her spiritual father. he philadelphia america until he died and i tell my kid this is how close it is, you know miss fredricka, this was her spiritual father. he lived this within living memory. if he can do this, how did he find the love to do this to suffer and not give up the gospel, even under conditions we can't imagine. what's -- that's what we have to learn, kids. this is what christians have done for most of the history of the church. so i think by telling these stories, bishop, and by -- practices like something as simple as fasting, start out simple and increase. these can help prepare ourselves to plow the land for the seed of the true goods spell of -- goods spell of giving up everything for christ. >> amen.
