Roger Scruton died last Sunday, January 12, 2020. I discovered this video a couple days ago and enjoyed it very much, not knowing he had just passed away. May he rest in peace.
(The video is in English with Portuguese subtitles.)
Petty Armchair Popery
"You equate your understanding of your particular sectarian form of Catholic Christianity and its institutional expression with God's own truth primarily to justify your petty armchair popery…." Yep, that's what it's all about.
Scruton was certainly one of the voices of sanity. A friend sent me a link to this documentary a couple years ago and I immediately liked the guy.
Do you happen to know how religious Scruton was? I assume he was Church of England but not really sure.
