Vonnegut on early Christians: If you want to fatten your essay some, why not write about the fantastic growth of Christianity in a Roman Empire which was so cruelly opposed to it. The state religion formed crowds of strangers to propitiate gods in enormous buildings or plazas. Christians prayed with cozy little bunches of friends who met regularly in cozy little places, which felt much better. The mottos of both Christian and Jewish congregations in those days might have been this: Religion on a Human Scale. -Kurt Vonnegut, letter to Robert Maslansky, August 6, 2000
