[T]his world of ours has some purpose; and if there is a purpose, there is a person. I have always felt life first as a story: and if there is a story there is a story-teller.
—G. K. Chesterton
Considering Tolkien’s use of breaking the unity of white light into the “many colors” of the spectrum as a symbol for relativism, it is indeed ironic that today’s radical relativists, in the branding and brandishing of their self-adulating and self-justifying “Pride,” have adopted the rainbow as their symbol. As Oscar Wilde would no doubt remind us, art doesn’t always follow life; sometimes life follows art.
