Before UD left Boston this morning…

… she took a copy of The God Delusion from her niece’s shelves – a little light reading for her train trip.

As it happens, she hasn’t yet glanced at it, even though we’re now pulling away from New York City. She has put it on her shared table – something to stick her tickets in.

And as we leave Penn Station, here come two young priests (one of whom has just crossed himself as we pick up speed) who ask if they can join UD‘s table.

“Sure,” says UD, “as long as you don’t mind my book.”

One of them looks at it, laughs, and sits down next to UD.

“As long as you,” he says, “don’t mind sitting next to someone delusional.”
