The teachers had master's degrees instead of habits-your father was thrilled. No praying at school, no religion book describing the fourteen Ways of the Cross and how guilty you should feel. At church everything was bland and wooden. No hobby photography stained glass depiction of Jesus being whipped, no red paint made to look like blood on the hands and feet of a flesh-colored statue hobby photography crucified alongside the alter. It was a world without shame, without fear of divine retribution or even the immediate threat of physical pain. No urgency, no forbidden hobby photography fruit. A world that believed in perfection, black and white dichotomies, existence without shades of gray. Practical. Sterile. Dull. So let's talk men for a moment. Men and the desire for chaos and pain. Now, I hope you'll excuse this politically correct generalization, but it seems to me pretty much a phenomenon of privilege to sit around all day glorifying anguish.
