    Paul Johnson on Tsunami

    For those of you who enjoy reading Paul Johnson's work, here is something that may appeal to you. For those who are unfamilir, P Johnson is a British writer who specializes in history and analysis. He is quite good, and though he may not be a devout Christian, he knows Christianity, and better I might add than a host of its practitioners. One of the more enjoyable aspects of this article is his scarcely veiled contempt for the clueless Archbishop of Canterbury.

    Splendid, old fellow, splendid!
    The man who is disposed to think of his sin as a great calamity, rather than as a heinous crime, is not likely either to reverence God or to respect His law. - John Kennedy, 1873

    Johnson is a top-notch historian. I have enjoyed and benefited from his writings.

    Blade,
    Yes, good articles there.
    But Spectator newspaper is the actual source.
    But if I don't link the article through LRC (which is a "registered" reader/link) nobody can read it without formally signing up with this Spectator website.
