Finding My Religion, by Diablo Cody

Diablo Cody's all-purpose lapsed-Catholic (but not totally lapsed) confession of faith in City Pages is incredibly moving, despite the clever, hip, former-sex-worker tone. Read every word, there are some real gems of writing there.

    Please read and fully UNDERSTAND the article before you past judgment. I believe the author has already 'aged a bit'. To find the article flippant is quite ignorant. I found it to be quite thought provoking. I was raised Irish Catholic and have found a different faith since. This article was not demeaning to my original faith and caused no ill-will toward my past as a practicing Catholic. It was a fantastic and thought provoking article.

    Ugh. This is just a lame writer trying to shock to get attention - the literary equivalent of Madonna at her shittiest.

    Girls can pull their pants down for attention. We know that. That doesn't mean that cookie cutter sass is somehow quality writing.
