The book lacks clarity in its central argument, meandering between topics such as Magna Carta, freedom of speech, genderism, conspiracies, and biblical prophecy without a clear thread of connection.

The author's assertion that age-old values are "under fire" lacks specificity, making it difficult for readers to understand the nature and extent of the alleged threat.

The use of Tony Hancock's comedy program from the 1950s as a prophetic source raises questions about the relevance and credibility of such cultural references in a serious discussion.

The author introduces terms like 'Gas-lighted' and 'Issachar commentators' without providing adequate context, leaving readers confused and disconnected.

The text's alarmist tone, with phrases like "catastrophes waiting just around the corner," detracts from its credibility and may be perceived as fearmongering.

The author's claim that the public and much of the church have been conditioned to accept "alien ideas" lacks concrete examples and evidence, diminishing the persuasiveness of the argument.

The mention of "conspiracy realities" without delving into specific evidence or sources undermines the text's credibility, as it leaves readers questioning the legitimacy of the claims.

The text presents a broad condemnation of "scientism" and "Islam" without providing nuanced analysis, potentially perpetuating stereotypes and oversimplifying complex issues.

The transition between topics, such as euthanasia, biblical prophecy, and a Christian 'Radio Caroline' pirate radio station, is abrupt and disrupts the logical flow of the text.

The concluding statements about facing growing mockery and standing for truth lack specific examples or evidence, relying heavily on religious references without connecting them coherently to the preceding arguments.
