- When I first graduated from college I felt pretty burned out on school and felt like I had enough for a while. In another month it will be a year since I graduated. Amazing. With all this time on my hands as I fill out job applications, I continue debating what I want to do with my life. When I graduated more school was pretty far from my thoughts. |

- The power of fastingI don't know how many of you include fasting in your regular pattern of religious devotion, but if you don't, I'd suggest you consider it. In the Sermon on the Mount Jesus gives advice to his disciples on the attitudes they should adopt when fasting, which of course presumes that they fasted.Fasting is nowhere near to being present enough in my own spiritual life, but I am working on it. I find that when I do fast it helps me to focus my attention spiritually. Everything s ... |

- Early wrap-up tonight since I've started this 'take life less seriously' kick. Really, it should be 'take the whole MBA app and my professional future less seriously' kick. There are some things in life that I'm preeminently serious about: my family and faith. But I don't take them in the deadly, morbid seriousness of an undertaker - I simply realize their import above other pursuits in my fleeting life. |

- Yesterday CNN's "In the Money" had an interview (it's about midway through the program) with the author of "Hitting the Jackpot: The Inside Story of the Richest Indian Tribe in History," Brett Fromson.

- I don't know where Dan Darling of Regnum Crucis is getting his information, but when he writes, Tyndale, for example, translated various New Testament passages in a manner than reflected his anti-cleric biases. For example, in his translation, "Church" became "congregation," "bishop" became "overseer," and "priest" became "elder." He also omitted 1 Peter 2:13-14 altogether because they called upon Christians to obey the temporal authorities. ... |

Calvin (Dec 12 2003 03:30 GMT) - Interesting idea in Bernard Cottret's Calvin: A Biography, which I've been reading and enjoying (certain passages are tremendously well-written). In a passage about Aquinas' Imitation of Christ, he suggests a precursor of what for me is one of the most difficult of Calvin's theological ideas, that of predestination:If the concept of the sacrifice of Mass reappears in later Catholicism, the picture of salvation presented in the same text also anticipates predestination as it would later be theori ... |

- ...which is the answer the playful question posed below. In a comment, Brian Ulrich said he'd take on the third to last graph of the essay, Does Islam Need a Luther or a Pope? by Edward Feser that ran on Tech Cenral Station, and I look forward to his remarks; I also hope Zack of Procrastination chimes in. I have a few more thoughts on the subject. |
