Last summer, during the height of the first Covid wave and the run-up to the election, I met a guy in his thirties—clearly intelligent and well-educated and curious about life—who confessed that he had no idea what to believe anymore. No idea? I said. Really?

None, he said sorrowfully.

Though he fully admitted he was getting most of his information from the Internet, which clearly had a lot to do

Quotes by Paula Huston (?)

“PRACTICE Today, wear your oldest and least presentable clothes, no matter what's on the schedule. Notice how people react. Think about what it is like to move about in a consumerist society when you cannot afford to keep up appearances.

They do not toil or spin. But I tell you, not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of them. (Lk 12:27)”
