Michael Gerson has written a lovely column summarizing much of what I’ve been saying for years, using much lovelier prose.
I will now paraphrase his wisdom somewhat more pithily:
If your Divinity cannot materialize on that hilltop over there and confirm what you say, then your claims to position and power are arrogant and empty assertions that will lead us all to disaster. So fuck off with your self-righteous anger.
Thanks.
