I see I’m not the only one to have analysed that line in the UNICEF campaign ad this way.

In a secularized age, with its low cognitive ceilings and lost moorings, we have turned in on ourselves. We now seek our access to reality only through the self, having decided that neither God nor His revelation is any longer pertinent.

This is to say that when we emptied our world of God and of the absolutes that had directed human life, we did not thereby open up large holes in the architecture of our inner life. Rather, we rearranged things to accommodate for these losses. We compensated for all we lost by turning within ourselves.

This is off topic, but it is Sunday so I plea the rule of Sunday channel chat. Has anyone read today's Matthew Henry (rev 7:9-10)? His commentary is really interesting, stating the jews prayed for the gentiles before Christ, the gentiles pray for the jews after. Since there are many more learned here than me, does anyone have anything to add or expand on that? It's a concept I had never considered

Children in 1966 predicting the year 2000.

Notice how they're able to put together complete sentences. Also note how they are right about the dystopia that was coming.

Fearing a resurgence of British bombast is like worrying about deck chair arrangements on the Titanic. Indigenous Britons will be a minority in their own homeland about 40 years from now. Patriots are an endangered species.

40 years? Try 4....and that's stretching it. Have you been out in a town or city lately? Stood in a school playground? My town is very small and well outside London, yet you barely hear an indigeonous voice. It's like Australia or NZ and we are now the Aboriginals/Maori's; squeezed out, culture and customs scrubbed, given easy access to booze, high suicide rates, and demoted to just an historical element of the tourism industry. Once tourism is eliminated....then what are 'we' for?

Interesting. I spent time living in Barbados... any high level business person or foreigner who owns a business or property there usually registers them in Panama/St. Lucia/Turks and Caicos/Cayman Islands for exactly the same reason.
It's also interesting the Barbados holdings ceased in 2021... not long before Barbados had it's second 'declaration of independence' (from Queen as head of state) forced upon it without the referendum as promised in the previous election
