Bath, along with every town near you, seems to be home to an increasingly bizarre agorism unfolding its awnings outside its traditional "church space" in the public landscape.

OK, we're long used to desanctified sacred places, the enthronement of monstrous art within Gloucester cathedral, pagan hares bounding from the increasingly Gaia-like womb of Cirencester: places that used to worship God but have syncretised as fully as some of the best apostates in history, and as per type, were thus as unable to hear Babylon pounding on the doors in 586 BC, as western Christendom finally does now.

However, as surely as yeast in dough, allow the world to enter the church in the guise of "Spirit", then the world and its default settings of eternal exclusion from an eternally Holy God, along with its resident oppositional and created spiritualities, come home to roost:

And as Jesus observed, the Kingdom on this earth will be always and increasingly host to the seed-stealing birds of demonic activity...it's just that the real watchful Bride is being butchered on 2 fronts: replicated and replaced by an increasingly well-crafted counterfeit on one hand, and predisposed by dint of her fleshliness to spiritual blindness as to her condition.

Nothing new...and depending on the audience, so what?
Just that I was there and saw this stuff. What DOES puzzle me is that we are still in the same global game that was overt, considered good, Godly and prosperous in the early 19th century ..and yet this phenomenon has been rendered covert by its creators, to the point of our received historical narrative itself being replaced.
Yes, there is a conspiracy. No, it is not a theory. It's not odd that there IS one, but very odd that the elements of society considered a global good in the 1820s, are considered either taboo or globally bad now.
