I imagine it’s “regional” by the meaning that entire countries have them behaving in a similar way, but it’s different from one country to another.
Anyway, I live in a 60 years-old city, so there are no centenary churches here :) yet they are still mostly older than the average for my country. There are entirely pop-up denominations that appear, annoy the hell out of friends and relatives that I have in other cities, then close down and disappear so that nobody remember their names anymore.
Hum… Either the brain bugs that started being created weeks prior discovered some mechanism they have been using to bombard the Earth for decades… Or the military speakerheads and the news that lie about literally every single thing we see happening lied about something else.
I’m finding it very funny, because I though it was incredibly obvious on the movie, and nobody would ever disagree.
Indeed, the movie is way too busy, so it’s easy to miss that there are no insects on space, or that the bugs weren’t even aware they were been systematically attacked until “now”. But it’s one of those things that I expected to be completely obvious once pointed out. It’s even more obvious than what you are narrating from the book, because on the movie Earth has been receiving those rocks for decades.
I imagine people missing the point is part of the point of it. It’s like that gorilla video.
