"nothing ever seems to dislodge from their secure livings those on the theologically liberal end of the spectrum"

"nothing ever seems to dislodge from their secure livings those on the theologically liberal end of the spectrum. . . . I remember hearing an interview with an English vicar who had recently abandoned any belief in God. When asked if he would resign, he replied without missing a beat, ‘Now that we know there is no god, my people need me more than ever.’”
