I said, "Everything is fine, I'm going home now," and said it just so I could say I'd said it in case she was upset later that I'd left without telling her. I thought about kissing her on the forehead but rejected the idea immediately; whatever physical intimacy had opened up between us had dissolved with the storm; even that relatively avuncular gesture would be strange for both of us now.

until recently
have been rooted. It is against a background of Christianity that all of our thought has significance.

I do not believe that culture of Europe could survive the complete disappearance of the Christian faith.
