And that level of relief is just so powerful.
It's like, I'm not just screaming that alone, you know?
I recently was interviewed by Diane Sawyer about the gospel of Mary for a documentary.
And she asked me this unbelievable question that was so good.
I kind of left my body.
So I have no idea how I answered it like for the documentary, but I have super low bar for myself in situations like that.
It's pretty much just don't pass out, you know, cause it's like, it's so unnatural being in a, you know, a studio and,
It's just so intense for me.
And I know what that costs me, you know, to try to do something like that.
So I was just like mercy for myself.
Just try not to slowly slip out of the chair and pass out on the floor during the interview.
But she asked me this question that was so good.
She said, if you could say one thing to Pope Leo, what would it be?
And so, again, I have no idea what I actually said because I sort of left my body.
But I've been thinking about that ever since she asked it.
And what I finally came to was the one thing I would say to him is I believe Mary.
And the reason I would say that, if it could only be one statement, that's the most important statement, is that I think that there is a direct connection within the gospel of Mary at the end of it.
The disciples don't believe her.
Peter asked her to tell them what she knows that they don't because she's a woman, because Christ loved her more than all other women.
And then at the end of it, he doesn't believe her.
