Hyperbole.
His conscience may be seared (and perhaps has been for a long time) as with a hot iron, but his immortal soul is in eternal peril because of his actions.

I’m beginning to think this too. His son’s death seems a raw wound that’s uppermost in his mind....

I’ve raised five. I’d argue otherwise. They don’t need to be taught to be selfish, self centered, rebellious, and quarrelsome. It’s built in. The trick is to teach, encourage and mold them to control ...
