Statement of Faith
I grew up evangelical but I no longer identify with that term.
Dorothy Day once described her life as one having been "haunted by God" and I think that's a pretty good summary of my own faith. Also, I'm less concerned with what someone believes than with what their life is oriented around and towards.
My Patron Saints
Quietly inspired by the lives of Dorothy Day, Bernadette Devlin, and Sinead O'Connor.
Some Things I Enjoy
Irish folk music, oral histories of pop culture, vegetarian tacos, Godzilla, woodworking, social history, folk horror films, board games, and Prince.
