Man seeks a truth which directs him a norm through his life. In the western world the truth tends to be sought in religion, especially in Christianity. Spark is one of those who seeks the truth in Christianity. Although the characters in The Prime of Miss Jean Brodic by Spark seek a norm on which they depend through their life, they are never shown in search of a norm, a truth that exists prior to and independent of themselves. Spark insists that man seek the truth through his insight, not through his instinct, and that through his insight he accomplish his life which is God's design. The design God made provides man with most perfect and absolute norm so that it is different from the one man himself has made. Everybody does not grasp the design, but the man who gets out of his own dogma and who has the eyes to see the norm objectively only does. Spark's religious faith in Roman Catholicism is not a product she herself only made in a year or so. It represents the faith built up since the human history began. Everybody does not keep the faith, but the man having insight does. Her conversion implies the homing instinct in the western world of the man who grasps the history of Christianity, reflects not only the result of Spark's spiritual pursuit in her life, also the acme of her comtemporary spiritual pursuit.
