Thanks for coming! I plan to post a lot of interesting articles and comment on a wide range of things-- from political to religious, from private to public, from formal writing on public policy to snippets on random observations.
From an interview by Marvin Olasky of Peter Kreeft in World:

First and foremost, I am saved by God's grace as manifested most clearly through the atoning death of Jesus Christ-- and thus, adopted into His family. As a result, I increasingly seek to extend His grace to others in my daily life. On the home front, I am a husband and father to four young men (two by adoption and two the more conventional way). Professionally, I am an economist who loves to teach and is active in public policy circles. Vocationally, I am an active writer and the author of three books (one on the book of Joshua; two on public policy-- one secular, one Christian). Finally, I am the co-author of a 21-month discipleship curriculum, Thoroughly Equipped (and a lighter 36-week version), for developing competent lay-leaders in the Church. Related to that work, Kurt and I have two books, Enough Horses in the Barn and Roll Up Your Sleeves.

A thoughtful quote; my only caveat is that while men and women are different in nature, they are little different in terms of intellectual capacity. Those of us of a certain age have sharp memories of the early 1970s, when women entered the professions in large numbers but against prevailing sexist attitudes that viewed women as intellectually inferior or lacking in strength, and which resented their efforts at equality. (I remember public debate on whether it was appropriate for women to wear slacks in the workplace. This was circa 1972.)
I noticed another quote by Kreeft, one that's all too true: If you're not too smart, you can't deceive yourself. College professors can.
