"When Alex left for Alaska," Franz remembers, "I prayed. I asked God to keep his finger on the shoulder of that one; I told him that boy was special. But he let Alex die. So on December 26, when I learned what happened, I renounced the Lord. I withdrew my church membership and became an atheist. I decided I couldn´t believe in a God who let something that terrible happen to a boy like Alex.
"After I dropped of the hitchhikers," Franz continues, "I turned my van around, drove back to the store, and bought a bottle of whiskey. And then I went out into the desert and drank it. I wasn´t used to drinking, so it made me sick. Hoped it´d kill me, but it didn´t. Just made me real, real sick.
