The Catholic mindset of man over God is simply astounding.

The --- I won't call it "Protestant" mindset, because there are so many different Protestant mindsets, many of them both wise and lovely --- but the "anti-Incarnational" mindset of some, their concept of God not sharing in our human nature, and our not partaking of His divine nature, is simply astounding.

It's as if we Christians were not members of the Body of Christ at all! It's as if we were just inert elements of despicable flesh floating around out here, not needing each other and not in constant and vital contact with each other and with Our good Lord. It is inexplicable to me, this failure to discern His Body.

I do not wish to communicate along these lines anymore. The constant accusations of my religious Faith being "evil," have been quite corrosive of friendship. It is a loss, since I would rather keep some semblance of friendship with you. It would interest me. It would be valuable. But perhaps it is not to be.

If I may ask, pray for me.
