"A woman's heart is such a complex problem-the owner thereof is often most incompetent to find the solution of this puzzle" -'The Scarlet Pimpernel'

My childhood hero, Jeanne d'Arc
Who I Am
I am "God's own child" as the hymn puts it. I am baptized in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. I have been crucified with Christ in that water and raised to eternal life in his resurrection. I confess Holy Scripture (the Old and New Testaments) to be the inerrant Word of God. I confess the teaching of the Evangelical Lutheran Church (the Lutheran Confessions) to be true to Scripture.
Here I stand, by God's grace I will not do otherwise; on my own strength, I fall.
My salvation and my honor depend on God;he is my mighty rock, my refuge. -Psalm 62:7
Where is the wise man? Where is the scholar? Where is the philosopher of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of the world? ...but we preach Christ crucified: a stumbling block to Jews and foolishness to Gentiles... But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise; God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong. He chose the lowly things of this world and the despised things -and the things that are not- to nullify the things that are, so that no one may boast before him. -I Corinthians 1
Actively recognizing the value and beauty of Truth and Adiaphora, I seek clarity amid uncertainty concerning the former and enrichment from the latter.
hey! just realized you added me to your followed blogs. Hi Sarah! I miss seeing you on Sunday afternoons. :) was thinking of you recently. take good care.
Nice.... I don't envy you. I was thinking more about the topic, and it sounds like MacIntyre is working from some kind of post-Kantian interpretation of Luther rather than Luther himself. Unfortunately, to refute him you'd have to read a lot of Luther and these mistaken interpretations, and you don't have time for that.
No kidding. Erg! Why did Kant have to mess things up? Well, I've been given another week, but I'm not going to depend on that since I have to write another paper as well.
Why, oh why, do I have to pick hard topics to write about? I always do it. I just can't seem to let myself do something easy. Even on the rare occasions when I think I've found an easy topic, it turns out to be harder than all the others. Well, it'll all be over in a month. Then all I'll have to worry about will be literature presentations and exams.
