Well, I'm affraid that's discussion could be so long as the plot of "
The name of the Rose" but, here we goes...
 JDS believes in a special kind of inner God, you could call Zen or
anithing else.In my point of view Holden follows the same
"religious"way.
Holden enphatizes your refuse about all the external appearance of
Cristhian Church but he really appreciate when he meat the noon at the
Central Station.
Who could understand this guy?
