Collectively we’ve displayed the pride, enjoyed the swagger in victory and felt the blows in defeat.  Perhaps in the quiet moments of a bathroom stall during intermission or after this year’s world junior’s tournament we’ve even [...]]]></description>

It is encouraging at certain points to experience life, at least at that moment, as having been boiled down, clarified, distilled.  I am not sure there is much more to Christian life, which is to say life, than prayer and worship.  Perhaps there is only worship or only prayer or some third unknown [...]]]></description>

I have come across various anecdotal concerns and criticisms of the Olympic games.  The criticisms have revolved around aspects of waste, excess and greed.

For better or worse I find myself continually interested in knowing, not so much knowledge, or perhaps more specifically I guess I am interested in knowledge about knowing (epistemology to drop the 10 dollar term).  Just how is it that we know something to be true, or come to any sort of knowledge for [...]]]></description>

Alright, now I admit that my multi-part series on MacIntyre’s After Virtue has not exactly been the most riveting work and I suspect that wading into any of the post has given some of you bad college flashbacks but I maintain the importance of what M. is trying to communicate.  [...]]]></description>

Part II
Sorry I have been a little slack on following through with my discussion of Alasdair MacIntyre’s After Virtue.  I mentioned in the previous post that M. uses three main characters to describe contemporary discourse on ethics, which he calls emotivist (based on subjective feeling or will).

There is the Rich Aesthete who is supplied [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[
I have begun reading Fernando Pessoa’s The Book of Disquiet.  From the first pages of this journal-like ‘factless autobiography’ something was stirred in me.  Suddenly the simple and heretical phrase emerged from within me claiming, “This book will be my salvation.”  I have never had that sensation before in reading.  I [...]]]></description>

Part I
