Dear FN,
I love Tony De Mello. When I was quite young, my
mother bought me both his books ("the short, pithy
stories), and they were so instrumental in shaping my
opinions about the redundance of religion. Ofcourse
Tony has no doubt about the existence of God, his
difference with doctrine is just that it is dogmatic
and redundant. I wonder if he has any new books out.
Ofcourse it's been a long time since I've read his
books and I've made the descent or ascent from theist
to agnostic, and so reading him now may not be the
same.
selma
I, too, have always been his ardent fan & have enjoyed the
privilege of his personal accquaintanceship, albeit, a long time
ago.
I am very glad that the Vatican have, unequivocally, reinstated
the great thinker in toto.
But dear Selma, is the man still among us. I, most definitely, do
not believe so.
Alfred.
PS: The good Baron Hausman would have proudly backed your
proto-blueprint for a viable re-enaction of Panjim town.
