Which I do not mean as a disparagement of churchgoing, for that can be one of the most direct paths to sanctity, by way of a humility that does not reside in an absence of thought, or rationality, nor in a devaluing of one’s gifts, but in an awareness of one’s position in relation to God; so that I mention it only because it is an activity that, due to its repetitiveness, which is essential to its sacramental nature, is susceptible to the corrupting influence of habit.
