Holier than Thou

 

Raison d'être

A young woman of my aquaintance, who fell on bad times through alcohol and drugs, was picked up off the street and taken in by Christians. She was overwhelmed by their generosity and kindness - she had to attend Church, of course, but that was a small price to pay for what she felt she had gained. I had my doubts, but kept quiet about them, wishing only the best for her. And, of course, being a Wise Child, she found the Canker in the Apple before very long . . . . and the Scales fell from her Eyes . . . and from then on  she saw, not "through a glass darkly, but face to face", where "all hearts are open, all desires known, and  no secrets are hid"
