Europe has ignored God.

Now it's Europe's turn to be ignored by God.

All the soaring cathedrals in the world won't save her if His Spirit is no longer there.

Sad but true. The one city I know well is Prague--zlata, stovezata Praha. Like Rome, you can scarcely throw a brick without hitting a church. But the only people who go in those churches anymore are Japanese touists, elderly Czech women, and crazy Americans like me. Of course, the Czech Republic is an especially secular place, sort of like Sweden. It's been that way for a century now.

Still, it's an amazingly beautiful place. If you can love a city like a woman, that's the way I loved Prague.

Amen. The EU is also busy cozying up to Russia to gain economic benefits but pissing Russia off at the same time by merger former Soviet block countries into the EU. Only a matter of time this strange European-Russian alliance will last until we see the bear bite the EU hard.
