Have any of you considered the role of priests in Percy’s novels?  Is there any common thread?

 

In The Moviegoer is there a priest?  The role grows into a main character in The Thanatos Syndrome, Father Reynaldo Smith.  There must be a purpose for these priests.  

 

As a Protestant Christian, I would like to know if Catholic Percy readers see any of these priests as realistic.
