Your excerpt from Spencer Klavan's piece reminded of this quote from Sheldon Vanauken in A Severe Mercy: "Goodness and love are as real as their terrible opposites, and, in truth, far more real, though I say this mindful of the enormous evils...But love is the final reality; and anyone who does not understand this, be he writer or sage, is a man flawed in wisdom."

Ooh, I love that and I love that you referenced A Severe Mercy. ...That book did a number on me in college.

Today, your poll insisted I had to sign in with a Google account. I don't have, nor do I want, a Goggle account. I will miss your poll if this continues.
