I wonder what Alexander Solzhenitsyn would have said about our response to CoVid?

“But are there not some things more valuable even than our own lives?”

You got right to the core of it. I’m reading this as an outsider, not being part of any church. But that was the key question for me. The sort of society that was being proposed as a way of controlling the virus was not a society I wanted for myself or my children. The notion that screen mediated interactions could in any way replace real ones is absurd, but I think we have become so used to screens that it took a while to fully realize this, and people came to the realization at different times and intensities, with their own individual justifications. Covid was an apocalypse, as in it revealed things. (Something I learned).
