didn't early christianity have to reconcile with the philosophies and schools of thought during the late roman empire? i recall learning and reading about the many early xtian councils attempting to make sense of just wtf this new religion was about. if it didn't make sense to the philosophical systems of the day, then they had to figure out a logical way to get around it or alter their beliefs, thus accounts for the numerous definitions of terms and breakaway sects of xtians.

to get rid of the philosophical arguments from faith is to stifle the journey, no?

You got me there, but there is nothing quite like exploring a secondhand bookshop and finding a sci-fi book that was printed ~50 years ago, flicking the stained pages and wondering about the how optimistic the first buyer would have been about the promise that the future held.

And then looking around at the futuristic crap in my apartment and realising that when the book was fresh on the shelves man was venturing into space and people actually believed that humanity could pull itself together and actually get something great done.

Why the hell would I care about what wage I make? I've inherited more money than I or my children will be able to spend in our lifetimes.

It's why I have the leisure time to devote to literary studies. What's your excuse?
