The topic of this program was set, according to WFB, "at our guest's suggestion-and his suggestions are my commands." At age 83, Mr. Muggeridge found the subject much on his mind-not in a gloomy way, but from the Christian perspective that he had finally embraced (he and his wife, Kitty, had joined the Catholic Church in 1984). Indeed, the talk during this radiant hour is less of death than of life: "People are inclined more than ever today to speak of the quality of life. They want to improve the quality of life, and they've gone to very great lengths sometimes to do it. But they've nearly totally overlooked what is true necessity, and that's the sanctity of life." ... "Ultimately, we belong to a proposition of love, and that proposition of love will inevitably work if you surrender to it. And this is what life's about."
