Educator, Poet, Historian, Army officer, and a graduate of
Northeastern and Harvard University, Adolfo grew up during the
Vietnam era as an outsider looking into the social upheavals,
finding that well-meaning people demonstrated on behalf of goodness
but bolstered evil. It seems that man really does not learn from
history regardless of how history repeats itself. With the advent
of Liberation Theology, Collective Salvation, and modern
technology, Adolfo looks to Dante on how to save the human soul.
Considering how to govern people, he looks to Machiavelli to see
whether Machiavelli was Machiavellian and whether his Prince was
fit to govern. In Alfieri, who loathed the 19th century, Adolfo
finds the perfect definition of tyrants and tyrannies (Alfieri's
stanza on George Washington continues to be uplifting). Baffling is
the reality that an America, populated with so many people speaking
foreign languages, its education system has produced few Americans
proficient in foreign languages. Realizing how science does not
have answers to important questions, Adolfo turns to a God who
transcends human attributes, rejecting Evolution and replacing it
with Evolvement. As for Martin Luther and Galileo Galilei, Adolfo
sees the former the father of modern anti-Semitism and the latter a
victim of the Church.
