HOW WAS POST-CHRISTIAN EUROPE SUPPOSED TO BE OTHER THAN DARWINIAN?
Europe's impossible dream (John Lloyd, JULY 23, 2012, Reuters)
The economic logic of European integration is now directly confronting nationalistic sentiments in the hearts and souls of Europeans. It's becoming clear that nationalism resonates more deeply. That is the stuff of our patriotic life, fragments from our history that we use to shore up our present and point to our future. To discard them is to discard part of our mental and moral makeup.
The Anglosphere is bound by ideas, Europe has no equivalent.
