Oh, my.. This has to be one of the most incoherent, bizarre, oddly Capitalized rants I've seen in a main-stream site in years. Mary Eberstadt appears to have some issues with atheists, although her struggles with English seem more interesting.

Take this one example:

That’s why real religious belief becomes so hard to shake, don’t You see? It’s nothing like one’s “individual conscience” or “internal principles” that way. After all, most people can lose those pretty easily! Just ask anyone when they’re at a party after a few drinks and some Ecstasy and they’re watching a porn movie on the HDTV while everyone’s grinding to Usher, to take an obvious for-instance. At that point, You can pretty much kiss their individual “consciences” and “principles” adios.


Oh, yeah, I run into that particular situation on a daily basis. (Rupert rolls his eyes.)

I thought the National Review was supposed to be a serious conservative (or neocon, anyway) publication? This reads like one of the crazier Usenet rants you occasionally post…

The NR is on the fringe of wackaloon conservatism, but at least most of their rants are written by people who've taken college English courses.
