Flannery is My FB Friend

Although quite dead, Flannery O'Connor is alive and well on Facebook. Here is her post from yesterday:

"I frequently disagree with priests who get themselves printed in various places but generally it's not with the contents but the tone. My mind is usually at ease, but my sensibilities seldom so. Smugness is the Great Catholic Sin. I find it in myself and I don't dislike it any less."

--Letter, 1/17/56

I was meant to be eccentric and Southern . . .
