“Father Kennedy did not see his work as religious; I don’t know if you know that or not. He saw the tools he used as religious, but that was only due to the prevailing course in the Western World. I viewed him more as a shaman or witch doctor, dealing with evil. He could have been using a clamshell and a string of beads from the South Pacific, as far as I could tell. He fought evil with goodness, not faith.” David paused. He had never put it into words before, and he realized that it was the actual reason he had worked with him. He was just as much of a therapist as me.
