    of their earliest childhood memories of church life. Ultimately, the ex-churched share the same faulty religious conditioning as their well-churched cousins. Both constituencies thereby define modern renditions of Biblical Tradition as vulgar and crass, which in turn, inspires status quos inside dying parishes to claim further support from outside the Church.

Holden applies the term “phony” not to people who are insincere but to those who are too conventional or too typical—for instance, teachers who “act like” teachers by assuming a different
