Religious Imagery in Flannery O'Connor's The Life You Save May Be Your Own The religious imagery in Flannery O'Connor's 'The Life You Save May Be Your Own' gives the story a cynical undertone along with a healthy dose of irony.

When someone starts depicting the images of God in relation to women, it is inevitable to prevent bringing up the feminist part within religious images.
