Summary
Louis snorts, flicking the cigarette butt onto the floor and stomping it out with the toe of his leather boot. “Do you think Jesus regretted it? Once he was up on the cross in fucking agony surrounded by criminals, I mean. Do you think when he wept he was full of regret and anger? When he realised in that moment no one gave a shit about him? The clouds didn’t part, God didn’t come down to pull him from the cross. God, his own father, left him to die. He didn’t even comfort His son while he died. Let him die all alone in fucking agony, didn’t he? Do you reckon he regretted it? Do you think he looked around at the fucked up world and realised we weren’t worth all that pain?”

College Freshman Harry has a perfectly normal relationship with God. He's gone to church his whole life, prayed when he's needed to, and God always listens. After signing up to Theology 101, for the easy A, he meets Louis Tomlinson, an upperclassman who wears leather jackets with a chunky black crucifix. Louis is also religious, so Harry of course agrees to go to the college's Bible Discussion Study Meeting. But Louis has fucked up views on religion that Harry can't possibly understand until one day, he does.
