I echo Victoria's comment. A most engaging piece.

My only hesitation is with the perceived contrast between a contrived 'no' of a more complacent past, and the rigourous and more realist 'No' of the present. I fear our perceptions of those who've gone before are inclined to be more of less superficial, failing to plumb the depth and complexity of their situation.

But I repeat, this is a minor matter set alongside the depth and richness of this Advent Essay.
