French Catholicism

They say that Catholicism as practised in France is a bit more permissive than elsewhere, e.g. Ireland. Combined with the fact that most of them are only nominally Catholic (like so many Australians), the actual image of religious dogma that you hear from French agnostics can be a little unorthodox. On the nature of the trinity:

C'est toujours au bébé Jesus qu'on prie. Parce que p'tit Jesus, d'accord ; Dieu, il met la lumière sur le berceau du bébé... Mais on ne prie pas au grand dadais qui s'est tapé Marianne.

And her interpretation of the issue of monophysitism vs dyophysitism:

It's like being an angel, when they get a kicked in the butt, they're put back into human form. It's a big disappointment for their families that they're not angels any more. Same for God.
