Rachel Popp- Choice #3


Why is the dove a holy symbol? I know it is often a symbol of the Holy Spirit, perhaps because the Holy Spirit can’t necessarily be portrayed as a human being. I also know that white is often connected with holiness because it is considered a very pure color. Furthermore, it could be the freedom that is often associated with birds, since they fly. I suppose there could be multiple reasons, but I suspect these are it.
