To: Salvation
“a profoundly difficult moral choice”–whether to obey God or men.

Nothing difficult about that.

To: Romulus

Dear Romulus, context matters. In a hypothetical thought experiment, sure it is easy to choose between obeying God or man. But when one has to consider that it may cost one's job or life, not everyone has the honesty, fortitude, courage and faith of St. Thomas More. Knowing the right answer and choosing it are two distinctly different things.
