They reinforce each other of course. I'm bored because I feel too awful to do anything that requires more than half a teaspoon worth of brain. Probably I should go take a nap.
Thank you to everybody who's responded to my Nine Tailors query. We seem to be moving toward a consensus on religion (including the question of "guilt"), the numinous, and the unheimlich (esp. the bells) as a topic, and I'm totally cool with that. When head feels less like tupperware stuffed with sawdust, I'll try to collect myself for a post.
Why is it "numinous" when the Latin is numen? Nobody has to answer that.
