Why do you think a Neighbor should be an expert on Mother's worshippers? 
I'm not claiming the narrator ever was one.

Secondly, this shows remarkable nativity regarding the concepts Wolfe is 
dealing with...
"But concerning that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of 
heaven, nor the Son, but the Father only."

Thirdly, he was a young Neighbor (all those little trees in that broken 
glass dome).

Finally, I offer Able. Some people argued that it was odd that he was 
able to become an accomplished archer so quickly. Wolfe's answer was, 
"Well remember he's spent some years in Aelfrice." So why do he display 
such ignorance of the place throughout the novel?
