It's one more indicator among many of the loss of power being experienced by religion in general in the 21st century. Irrational belief becomes more irrelevant, the holy men can't do much if anything to stop it, so they whine like a bunch of kicked puppies.
But the real mystery of this article is: "Just WHAT Is A 'Woggle'?!?"
