Talk:Everything That Rises Must Converge

Untitled

This book was featured on the Season 5 finale of the television show LOST. Should this be included in the section? - Ccchhhrrriiisss 14 May 2009 10:31

Ugh, this is terrible. The Summary section is a mishmash of florid, ungrammatical, run-on sentences. A particularly odious example: "O'Connor, while writing of the violence humans inflict upon one another, mainly referencing the concept of antimaterialism, integrating notions of indifference, grace, faith, and morality, as that was a central concern of all of the short stories in this collection." I can't help; I came here looking for information. Here's hoping some O'Connor fan comes to this article's rescue. 24.128.188.152 (talk) 19:48, 11 June 2010 (UTC)

Incorrect Citation

The "Remain true to yourself..." quote does appear to come from the story, but the citation for it (Citation 4, "Analysis of Everything That Rises Must Converge"), or at least the archived copy of it, doesn't even mention it. Unfortunately I don't know the material - or understand why the citation was used in the first place - well enough to try correcting it myself, but thought I should at least leave a note about it for someone to, hopefully, find some day.

Hello, future person!

Sorry, I misspoke (miswrote?). The quote is not from the story - it is, as the page says, from Teilhard. However I can't find any evidence (at least with a half hour of lazy searching) that he ever had a work titled "Omega Point" (listed in his wikipedia page, or elsewhere) - although it was clearly a term & concept that he coined & defined. But while the quote is attributed to him all over the place, I can't find any source (reliable or otherwise) that identifies what work it *does* come from.

You seem to have your work cut out for you, Future Person.
