> “I liken liquid modernity to the Great Flood of the Bible,” Dreher said,[...] “The flood cannot be turned back. The best we can do is construct arks within which we can ride it out, and by God’s grace make it across the dark sea of time to a future when we do find dry land again, and can start the rebuilding, reseeding, and renewal of the earth.”

That reminded me of the convents in Neal Stephensons 'Anathem'.
