VirtueOnline - News - Exclusives - The Invisible Hand Is Writing On the Episcopal Church Wall

The Episcopalians and the Syn Conference Lutherans
are enjoying the same feast.
"He who dances with the Spirit of This Age
will be a widower in the Age To Come."


VirtueOnline - News - Exclusives - The Invisible Hand Is Writing On the Episcopal Church Wall: "American author Walter Russell Mead, a leading foreign policy expert, has written a piece for the American Interest in which he declares that an invisible hand has been writing on the nation's wall of late, and the message is scaring the markets. "The markets should be scared; there is real trouble afoot, and the world's political and economic leaders are terrifyingly out of their depth," he writes.

According to Mead, the message being sent to the markets, the kings and rulers of this earth, the Davoisie and the bankers, the economic sages and the lords of finance by the invisible hand that shapes us like a potter's wheel is this:

MENE MENE TEKEL UPHARSIN, "You have been weighed in the balance and found wanting." Now your punishment begins.

"The thin rhetoric of a backward looking president, the obstreperous negativism of an opposition better at rejecting what it hates than building or even conceiving what it needs, the lotus-eating educational formation that cuts us off from our past, and the incessant noise of a superficial pop culture: none of this is worthy of America at its best and none of it will help us now."
