Dear Percy-L,

 I have an inquiry and I don't live in a world that speaks to it.

I recently read that

evangelicalism is "the religion of enthusiasm'

  I Thought THAT WAS SOMETHING ELSE, IT SAID SO MUCH TO ME AS A HUMAN LIVING IN "THESE DREAD LATER DAYS "LIVING IN THESE UNITED STATES

anyway the person who said this was named

Ronald Knox, a mischievous soul  in the catholic church, a thinker, who seems to see us up close.    ........ He also wrote and excellent little book on D.H. Lawrence.

what I was wondering if anyone has heard of this man?

and

if you knew what I could read that would signify?

Thank you again for this portal to you,

Lauren Stacy Berdy

( I often wonder what would Percy write these day, don't you?)

 Also are you not so very thankful for Mr. Jon Meacham presence among the TV talkers?
