"Ask yourself: is there something sinister in moralism? And then answer: no. God is in his heaven. Everything is normal on Earth" goes hard as a criticism of "moderates"
My pet theory prior to Sacred and Terrible Air getting translated into English was that at least some high level moralists were a death cult deliberately trying to cause aggressive pale expansion by trying to make apathetic, noncommittal beliefs the norm at scale. (At this point details concerning the Pale turning aggressive and Revachol getting nuked in the '70s had made it into english speaking circles, but not much else)
There's a thing that gets hinted at one point, that the pale might be a result of the literal theft of the future by governments and corporations, and I really liked that idea. Making the death of the future a literal phenomenon. I have not read sacred and terrible air yet, I've got the pdf downloaded but I never got around to it.
