Rod Dreher's false choice, where his utopian devil is in the detail "truly"


"I would rather live in a truly Christian culture that was dominated by (say) Latino Christians than live in a secular culture dominated by whites."

There's never been a truly Christian culture, and never will be. This is a straw man argument.

In which case the choice of where to live is much less important and much less fraught than this Manichaean choice between Light and Darkness.

But Rod Dreher likes fraught.
