I think 50% is a really remarkable number.

I think it's particularly interesting as well that it's coming from France, which not only is sort of the birthplace of

secular, liberal, revolutionary fervor, basically communism, let's say, you know, French Revolution, the French philosophers of the mid to late 20th century, all that jazz.

And, you know, it's really enshrined secularity into its

government and its culture, it's very interesting that it's coming from France.

Of course, because France has also been the site of many terrorist attacks by Islamist actors, either lone wolf actors, like if a French priest was beheaded at an altar, if I remember correctly, a few years ago, the Bataclan attacks of 2015, all this sort of things, a driving attack in Nice,

for a 14th of July celebration.

So France is really a hotbed of ferment of all of these conflicting things.

And the priest, one of the priests quoted, said something very interesting.

He's a canon in Paris.

And he just said that a return to tradition is in the air.

That was the phrase he used.

He said there's been a return to traditional practices like prayer vigils, pilgrimages.

And this is my favorite part of the quote.

He said, and a certain awareness of sin, which I think is a very sort of elegant definition.

way to put the sort of cataclysmic collapse of societal norms that have been inflicted upon us by, I mean, you could say largely by the internet, but the internet is merely a tool.

It's really sort of this globalist blob that thinks that it doesn't matter if you're a man or a woman to be a mother or a father, you can be a gestating parent,

You can purchase babies.

You can be any kind of infinite variety of sexual preference.

And people are reacting against that.
