In hierdie titel gee die skrywer sy mening oor die ekologiese krisis en beveel aan dat ons ons hele wereldbeskouing verander, nie net ons tegnologie nie. Dit beteken ons ou volkie se pionierstalente kom weer in aanvraag. Hy glo ook parasiete is van groot nut vir die mensdom, want dink net hoe hierdie haglik oorbevolkte planeetjie nou al sou gelyk het sonder malaria! Het u geweet vegetariers is in werklikheid plantmoordenaars? Hulle is erger as vleiseters, want hulle pik op die mees weerlose lewende wesens wat nie eers kan skree of weghol nie. En diereregte-aktiviste is ongelukkig en onvrolik. Hulle het in der waarheid net een doel, en dis om ander mense ewe ongelukkig te maak. En hulle het geld. Soos die ikone van televisie-prediking weet hulle hoe om hulle bydraes uit naiewe ou tannies se sakke te rokkel. Wanneer die dood tersprake kom, glo hy ons instinkte lieg vir ons dat ons liggame onsterflik is. Ons verstand weet ons gaan sterf, maar ons arme instinktiewe liggame glo dit nie.

Celebrating Sundays provides readings from the Christian tradition that offer commentary on every Sunday Gospel reading in the three year lectionary. In the middle of the sixth century, St Benedict wrote 'Let the inspired books of both the Old and the New Testaments be read at Vigils, as also commentaries on them by the most eminent orthodox and catholic fathers' (Rule of Benedict, IX) and this set the pattern for worship and preaching which prevails today. All the great patristic names are included here: Augustine, Bede, Ambrose, Gregory the Great, Aelred, John Scotus Erigena, Origen, Cyril of Alexandria and dozens besides. An invaluable companion for preachers and for personal reflection on the Sunday lections, this makes an ideal gift for confirmation, ordination and anniversaries of priesthood.
