One may think that the comments you find on BBC have your say represent the voice of the people but that is not true. I’ve followed the commenting on WHYS for some months now paying attention to the articles that concern the church.

It is the same set of people who comment negatively

The moderators remove practically all the comments showing the other point of view: I’ve had comments moderated out for being ‘off point’ (I asked why a report on the new norms of the CDF should not have a link at least to the real report so that people could read it before commenting), or ‘too long’. If anyone had positive views on the Pope they have already stopped checking WHYS long ago.

Charles Williams is one of the finest and most frightening writers in the language. “Descent into Hell” may be his greatest work.

regarding diane’s reference to “the great divorce,” i just finished charles william’s “descent into hell.” it’s “the great divorce” on darker steroids. and it is set 30 miles north of london. :)

“cultural sanity” is a fantastic phrase.

Good call sadly, indeed the West is in a “Great Divorce”!

Odd, and sad, how the comments resemble the self-absorbed ramblings of the ghosts in “The Great Divorce” (C.S. Lewis) as they make their way back to the bus.

Western Europe is dead — culturally, morally, on every level . . . the Brits, unfortunately, find their uplift in the bottle and in football. A sorry state of affairs.
