Whatever happened to the spirit of a man's home is his castle?

"William Pitt expressed the importance Americans once placed on the sanctity of the home from trespass when he said: 'The poorest man may in his cottage bid defiance to all the forces of the Crown. It may be frail--its, roof may shake--the wind may blow through it--the storm may enter--the rain may enter--but the King of England cannot enter--all his force dares not cross the threshold of the ruined tenement.'"

Just who does Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew think he is to throw poor helpless monks out of their home?
