Daniel Berrigan and Mercedes Sosa in one piece - no way, I love it! Thanks for reminding me to frame the picture of her that has been stored in my closet - and articulating so beautifully the gems received and the paradox of being raised under the influence of Catholicism (and Peace and Justice movement). Took me years to allow myself to allow room for the gifts after I left it and didn't look back.

What a great piece! My relationship to Catholicism is very similar.

I’ve been jokingly calling myself a “culturally Catholic atheist” for years. Culturally for many of the same reasons you noted above, but maybe I meant kitschy all along.
