Touching evil

This is not unlike other events where we’ve seen opinions expressed in violence. People reveal their intellectual limitations through their actions.

For the 5th time in 10 days churches have been desecrated by either musical, casual, or serious Satanists, and it hasn’t even appeared seriously on the media radar, except quite briefly as a local issue. The fear of discussing religion at all, or its’ meaningless in modern European life may be at the heart of the matter because it discourages individual narcissism, while its’ absence leaves people ill prepared to discuss mortal matters with anything more than an adolescent degree of depth.

Hence the boboiste religion of civil life. Repeat it often enough, and you might feel smart, and take up what seem like absurd and hopeless causes because they feel good on a uncritical level, no matter how wrong-headed they are.

Is the press afraid of the obvious comparisons that can be made with the violence to Danish, Norwegian, and French related property and symbols by the "anti-cartoon crusaders", or is it because they just don't know how to wrap their brains around the issue anymore?
