I love this! Your explanation of the culture is very helpful. Seeing the narrator as niave helps explain the humor. And we are all what we do, aren't we?

Your more "literary" columns open insights that I haven't thought of in years. I had forgotten how much literature can open a window for understanding the hubris of our "modern" perspectives. This week's offering was so well summarized in the footnote, "it’s ironic how the horseshoe effect results in some Protestant fundamentalists being an awful lot like the medieval church they claim to reject." Keep up the good work.
