Several decades ago, novelist C. P. Snow wrote, “Civilization is hideously fragile, you know that; there's not much between us and the horrors underneath. Just about a coat of varnish, wouldn't you say.” This past week has illustrated his point extremely well. Not that we have necessarily reached the ‘horrors underneath,’ but clearly that ‘civilization is hideously fragile.’ If you were asked to create a list of things that are fragile, you might normally think of things like silence, snowflakes, butterflies … But before this past week, would you have thought to add corporate worship to that list?
