One of my favorite quotes, illustrated . . . .





One of my favorite Christian writers is Annie Lamont and one of my favorite of the many of my favorite of her quotes comes from her book TRAVELING MERCIES: SOME THOUGHTS ON FAITH (page 131).

And now, here it is. Sent to me by a friend. Sort of illustrates how I felt as I wrote the reflection on Mathematics.

The Boy Jesus, having heard my awful thoughts.

Illustrated.

For your edification and enjoyment.

"I had such awful thoughts that I cannot even say them out loud because they would make Jesus want to drink gin straight out of the cat dish."

  1. Okay - so the picture is actually that of MadPriest (http://revjph.blogspot.com) , sent to me by his blessed mother.

    It explains so much of his writing, don't you think?
