The heathen English

Graham is disgusted that the administrator of the English History & Identity group has deleted all discussion topic posts. Click the title for the group. He is a man who does not like criticism and the assertion that Christianity is the biggest influence on our culture. He wants to go back to his heathen roots he says.

What though the spicy breezes
Blow soft o’er Ceylon’s isle;
Though every prospect pleases,
And only man is vile:
In vain with lavish kindness
The gifts of God are strown;
The heathen in his blindness
Bows down to wood and stone.

FROM GREENLAND'S ICY MOUNTAINS Reginald Heber

I am tempted to post him that verse.
