Bernard,

 

Very helpful.  Would Fr. Kev be a feint to throw readers off from classifying all priests as emblems of Christianity?

 

In The Thanatos Syndrome doesn’t Tom More make a passing remark to update us on Fr. Kev?  I can’t find it quickly.

Has anyone mentioned the "Dutch schismatic" Fr. Kev Kevin in LITR? He "takes clinical notes, operates the vaginal console," and sits at the computer, "reading a book, Christianity Without God."

Allen,

 

It is great to hear from you again.  Thanks so much for your information on Father Weatherbee.   I will get ahold of your book and check it out.  Any further ideas on “priests,” Episcopal or Catholic?

 

Rich

Fr. Weatherbee retires from the sacramental world to spend his time playing with toy trains, while more informed searchers like Father Smith are up in the firetower looking for signs (with his azimuth -- Arabic for "the way").
See my Walker Percy's Sacramental Landscapes (Susquehanna UP, 2000) for a new way of looking at Fr. Weatherbee (137-42).
