  1. greetings beth

    2cents

    thanks for the stuff on Day as in a past post
    i got in big time hot water with Abbot Marion
    over the Catholic Worker and Dorothy , not to be mixed up with the over the rainbow Dorothy! like Mertom
    i dont think Days saint hood thing is going any where
    its just to human and not enough beatific vision stuff
    - if there is such a thing well good luck with that !
    just my view but every one is entailed to there own
    theological out look- well may be in 500 years its like the Joan of Arch !

    1. my 2 cents ...

      the days of beatific vision are over.
      somewhere we made the turn, crossed the line,
      and from hence forward
      we find what we seek only in the here and now,
      matter, the ordinary ... this!

      in some circles it's called: incarnation.

      I'm reading a book now about John Cage, Zen Buddhism, the inner life of artists. I forget the name of the book, but it explores what was going on with artists in the 40s and 50s. Merton was definitely on that wavelength as well. Lax too. Some say that it takes the rest of us about 100 years to catch up with what the artists are intuiting. I find it very hopeful (and exciting).

      christmas blessing to you, bob. always appreciate your 2 cents.

  2. I have the feeling that the Church might be changing, despite its great reluctance and inertia.
    As with the Republicans, demographics changes everything!

    1. I have that feeling, too, J. Something (change?) is in the air.
