Here is another episode of the same series, talking about the role of beauty and order in spirituality. This is the story of how those things, especially as expressed in music, led a Jew from liberal atheism to Catholicism. I post it here because it expresses very powerfully and beautifully the same ideas and impulses that have led me into Catholicism from other forms of Christianity. In this, also, is articulated much of the role that You have played in my spiritual journey, in showing me the way to that Divine Order. This is what I've tried to express before by comparing you to Beatrice to my Dante.


"Mozart, when he wrote that piece [the 40th symphony], was witnessing to me, that: the truth of things, which is the relationship between Man and God."
