Thanks for these two quotes from Mary, a beautiful Catholic Southern sister's The Habit of Being (Vintage, 1979), a collection of her letters.

Here's another;

"One of the effects of modern liberal Protestantism has been gradually to turn religion into poetry and therapy, to make truth vaguer and vaguer and more and more relative, to banish intellectual distinctions, to depend on feeling instead of thought, and gradually to come to believe that God has no power, that he cannot communicate with us, cannot reveal himself to us, indeed has not done so and that religion is our own sweet invention"

Did yall know, Mary could teach a chicken to walk backwards when she was a very young girl and she said the chicken gained no little notoriety for it.

Kool chicklette, methinks.

Thanks again, Barrister.
