"You don’t need to be a mystic. You don’t need to study Greek or Coptic. You just need to understand what Mary understood—that love, when it is embodied and awake, is holy." This is only one of the passages in your post that's worthy of repetition.

How did a religious tradition that began with faith in the presence of God in human flesh come to be so phobic of the body and of eros? You're calling your readers back to the light that shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not put it out.
