“”The new reality is not strictly anti-Semitism or anti-Americanism or pro-Russian bias, but a judgment of the world according to a new paradigm.””

A new paradigm? Please explain what you mean by that, and if it’s what I think you mean, how it is “new”.

Carlson was brought up in a religious family (grandfather was a priest, Episcopalian). So how would his judgment of the world be “new”. I don’t know about any differences re: the Episcopal faith, but I can’t imagine it being all that different that Carlson would have to have a “religious conversion” to see the world as it really is. So please elaborate.

It sounds like you’re giving Carlson a huge benefit of the doubt here, and that is the very definition of a Christian attitude. Congrats on that. But I still don’t trust him. Can’t pin it down, but something just doesn’t seem ‘right’ to me with him.

Please understand the self-limiting codicils I attached to my comments. I referred to them at least three times as "speculation." Once as "rank" speculation and another time as, "pure" speculation.

As to observations about Carlson's Episcopalian upbringing, I refer to his own comments to the effect that the Anglican church meant to him something much less than muscular Christian faith.

If, repeat if, he had a conversion experience, one would assume some sort of departure from his earlier Episcopalian/Anglican exposure.

He would see the world then as one who experienced an epiphany sees the world, according to a new paradigm.
