In the book "The Last Gentleman" by Walker Percy, the speaker expresses a sense of discontent with Christ being too present in their life. They feel overwhelmed by His constant presence and show disdain for the company He keeps. This sentiment reflects a struggle with the expectations and norms associated with faith and spirituality.

The speaker also conveys a sense of longing for separation from Christ, suggesting that there could be a point where divine presence becomes burdensome. They imply that the real challenge is not merely feeling abandoned by God, but rather dealing with the discomfort when divine attention feels excessive, especially when it seems to align with unsatisfactory influences.
