Where would God feel at home?

Asked by saint (3975points) November 9th, 2011

I watched a movie the other night when I was having trouble sleeping due to war nightmares.
The Name of the Rose.
Great flick, supporting the notion that Sean Connery has never been in a bad movie. Connery plays an Aristotelian influenced monk (Brother William of Baskerville) in Europe’s “Dark Ages”. He is visiting a monastary where a mysterious death has taken place. Possibly caused by the Devil.
At one point, this conversation takes place between Brother William and his novice, Adso…

Adso- Do you think that this is a place abandoned by God?
William of Baskerville- Have you ever known a place where God WOULD have felt at home?
Good question.
