In regard to the query about Robert Brentano's offhand remark concerning
the potential dangers of the paradigm of "popular religion," it is possible
that Brentano had in mind the reservations of Peter Brown, expressed in
_The Cult of the Saints: Its Rise and function in Latin Christianity_
(1981), pp. 12-22, at a time when he was Brentano's colleague at Berkeley.
