    Sorry, but I don't see the connection between what you are saying and what I said. I never suggested that the Greek politicians should not have known better. I did suggest that the Greek voters, who were not AFAIK exposed to any such discourse, might be excused for not knowing better than their leaders. Or is your point that the Greeks should have listened to the BBC?

    In those simple times there was a great wonder and mystery in life. Man walked in fear and solemnity, with Heaven very close above his head, and Hell below his very feet. God's visible hand was everywhere, in the rainbow and the comet, in the thunder and the wind. The Devil too raged openly upon the earth; he skulked behind the hedge-rows in the gloaming; he laughed loudly in the night-time; he clawed the dying sinner, pounced on the unbaptized babe, and twisted the limbs of the epileptic. A foul fiend slunk ever by a man's side and whispered villainies in his ear, while above him there hovered an angel of grace . . .
