PLEASE! JUST BECAUSE SOMEONE HOLLARS AND VOMITS ABSURDITIES DOES NOT WARRANT THEIR FACE BEING IN THE NEWS—OH MY GOODNESS, MY BAD! PLEASE FORGIVE ME, I FORGOT: PUTTING THAT FACE ON FRONT PAGE IS MONEY FOR OUR NEWS MEDIA AND ANOTHER PROMOTION OF OUR GLORIOUS CELEBRATIONING OF !ME!ME!ME!
Your comment is related to one of my favorite quotes from THE GIVENNESS OF THINGS by Marilynne Robinson, page 134: “When Christians abandon Christian standards of behavior in the defense of Christianity, when Americans abandon American standard of conduct in the name of America, they inflict harm that would not be in the power of any enemy.” Celebration of “!me!me!me!” is a prime signal of how easily human beings become unhinged from humanity.
I have just downloaded that book . . . you are to be expecting a phone call soon
