MarysLittleFlower Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 I liked this reflection on how to reason properly.. it's written by a good priest I know One of the ideas discussed in the article, is that the way we are taught to think today was developed in the so called "enlightenment" era by philosophers like Descartes, but is fundamentally flawed. http://catholicwisdom.net/2015/08/17/chesterton-and-the-long-lost-art-of-thinking/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ash Wednesday Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 Props. If I owned a pub, I would name it the Chesterton. For now I may have to settle for a cat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarysLittleFlower Posted August 30, 2015 Author Share Posted August 30, 2015 (edited) I'd love a cat named Chesterton. Good pub name too and it needs to serve British food might turn into a Catholic hangout place haha .

BarbTherese Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 Descartes: I have a riddle for you, Socrates. How does Descartes [i.e. my own philosophy] differ from the Blessed Virgin? Socrates: Tell me. Descartes: She made only one Assumption. The above quote from the reflection gave me a smile Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
