Who is Don Colacho that I should care what he has to say? From wikipedia:
Ah, not someone to take seriously then. Sounds good. |
Also from wikipedia: “Wikipedia acknowledges that it should not be used as a primary source for research…Inaccurate information that is not obviously false may persist in Wikipedia for a long time before it is challenged. The most prominent cases…involved biographies.” |
After seeing it on the shelf for many years, I finally got around to reading The Idea of a University by John Henry Newman, and was distinctly underwhelmed. His argument (which I am probably mangling horribly) was that no school could legitimately be called a university if it did not offer theology. He asserted that theology is just as much a science as physics or anatomy, but as far as I could tell, it was just an assertion. |
oooh boy… this reminds me of ‘baptim by desire’… sometime last year i research baptism because i was trying to understand how could man corrupt such a simple ordinace and the things i found amazed me… as far as i’m concerned we get grace ‘after all we can do’… that is assuming that we do the right things of course… |
This is definitely a threadjack (I would feel more guilty if the thread had taken off) and probably unjustifiably ad hominem, but … Dan, are you capable of non-political expression? Honestly, get a grip. Admin, feel free to delete. Meanwhile, I am off to apply sunblock, since this damn glass house doesn’t provide a lick of UV protection. |
Dan is incapable of ever taking a middle ground. He worships at the shrine of Rachel Maddow and Keith Olbermann. *Everything* is about politics and Dubya. |
I’m reading Sarah Palin’s book and I like her now. |
