St. Christopher



 




Dictionary.com

2. a male given name: from a Greek word meaningChrist-bearer.”


KIWIPEDIA

Saint Christopher is a saint venerated by Roman Catholics and Orthodox Christians, listed as a martyr killed in the reign of the 3rd century Roman emperor Decius (reigned 249 - 251). He is the patron saint of travelers.

Some believers in the Roman Catholic tradition carry images of Saint Christopher, either on their person or in their vehicles, for protection on journeys.



雖然我是個固執的無神論者,但對宗教的人物們卻很有興趣,尤其是聖經的故事。之前有機會涉獵但丁神曲,也讓我認識到宗教背後的龐大體系有多麼令人著迷。

自從蓋了女神殿,我有時候會陷入接近宗教體驗的歇斯底里。面對宗教藝術的偉大,還真有去信教的衝動。
