Faith And Music, Ctd.
ByA Catholic appreciation - contra Pope Benedict - of the music of Bob Dylan. Money quote:
In retrospect, although I was raised a Catholic, I now realise that my first religious experience came through music. I had no illusions that any of the artists who moved me were "prophets", much less gods. I did however have a sense that through them I was able to catch some refracted ray of truth - something universal that can be hinted at only in great works of art.
"When you ain't got nothin'/ You got nothin' to lose." Dylan was closer to Jesus than some want to understand.
