15 people survive on a boat of 150 and they say that "gods finger was conspicuous in the event"!I think that there is a touch of irony here especially as it seems God is rewarding the people who chose to indirectly murder(bit harsh)their comrades by "seperating the clean from the unclean".Some would argue that they did what they had to do(and I agree)but from their Christian perspective it was not the right course of action.Barnes is perhaps using irony to attack religion.
"How hopelessly we signal,We are all lost at sea",this could be read in terms of peoples religious beliefs.
Anybody agree with that lot??
