I’m currently reading Paul Kingsworth’s “Against the Machine,” and just finished the chapter on how losing the concept of the home has accelerated our decline as a culture. “Strip the last remaining fires from the last remaining hearths, and you are one step closer to what is perhaps the ultimate ambition of the Machine: the abolition of home.”
I enthusiastically praise you merely for the pun in the title! My gratefulness to God could go on and on.... ;)
Punning is one of my favorite pastimes... :-)

Absolutely. When I read Kingsnorth's book, that passage also jumped out at me.
I absolutely choose "Te Deum" but with one glass of white wine. Happy New Year Peter.
