So an awareness of sin in particular, that word is extremely telling.

Well, yeah, you're more practiced in this area.

But I will say this, much like what Frank and you were just talking about over that poll, this is the sort of conceptual drive that is happening in all of these stories that we return to over and over again.

And just saying what you just said in different words, it's the laity versus the hierarchy, right?

The laity is going to revive and rebuild, and they're going to detach from the hierarchy.

I was, yeah.

So I was on BBC Northern Ireland's lunchtime radio show called Talkback because a British footballer, a famous retired footballer by the name of Joey Barton, was sentenced this week to six months' imprisonment for mean tweets.

The sentence was suspended for 18 months by a court in Liverpool.

It was a jury trial.

He was found guilty by a jury of his peers, apparently.

But the tweets in question were accusing a female football commentator, two female football commentators, for being bad at their jobs, one of being a DEI hire, and also making jokes that were obviously sort of hyperbolic and silly comparing these two women to serial killers Fred and Rosemary West.

And he also accused or he also called the very famous radio presenter Jeremy Vine a bike nonce, meaning, you know,

It's an insult that refers to a pedophile, but, you know, these again, these are hurdy words.

The man was sentenced to six months in prison.

The judge's remarks were shocking and appalling.
