Book Review - Recovering The Lost Tools Of Learning by Doug Wilson
My review of a book making the case for a return to classical education - from 1991. Homeschooling is even more popular today and this book still holds up with a sad tale of how much further western education has fallen since then.

Define your terms and understanding the nuance of care that a subject holds is hopefully a theme we've stressed on this show. When it comes to the nature of Scripture it has never been God controlling robots or humans writing down whatever they think God is. It has been the same type of relationship salvation by God of man is. Josh & Jeff from The Anarchist Bible Study help shows that the key to understanding Scripture is understanding how Scripture was written and how our hermeneutics informs that.

What Bart Ehrman seems to claim is a standard of that of a non-believer in the biblical, Christian God. However, there are statements and expectations he has which shows that although he may not like it he relies on the standard of God revealed in the Bible as the standard for what should be the case and or what is the case.

Apologetic neutrality is not biblical or possible. Again, highlighting the definition of what's meant by "neutrality" is prime. Archimedes is attributed to saying, "Give me a place to stand and I shall move the world." Even unbelievers know that one needs a place to stand.

Listen you illogical Christian, we can talk about if God exists but you have to not rely on your ultimate standard or any scholar who is a Christian. You can't rely on anyone philosopher older than 20 years ago because they've all been proven wrong and you definitely can't rely on anything in your Bible. Oh, also I can use science, reason, logic, trusting of my senses, and the morality I subscribe to and no I don't have to prove it. There - now we're on neutral ground. And go. - - - This isn't a war between faith and science; it's the war between faiths.

Dr. James Anderson has become well known for his work on the transcendental argument. His mind seems to be able to work on that level. However, one of the interesting things about Dr. Anderson is that he didn't start in the world of apologetics and philosophy. So while you may not have breakthrough understanding of advanced philosophical concepts, wherever you are at and whatever your strength is you can use it for declaring the glory of God.

There’s a blimp pilot, Rogue Whip, that crashes his ship and he’s mistaken for a spy with the same name. But then he sees a giant hydra and he’s surprised by it but not really. He quickly rescues a fair maiden but he doesn’t take advantage of her and we should all be grateful to him that he could control himself. The bad guys appear and they aren’t surprised by the giant hydra until they are. Then aliens show up and…I don’t know, other stuff happens I guess.

If one were to have a conversation between a capitalist and a communist it would be odd if the communist said that only he is allowed to use math, studies, and sociology that only agrees with him and the capitalist is forced to use only those tools - oh and also the capitalist can't bring any of his beliefs into the conversation as that would be "begging the question". So is the conversation between the different faiths of Christianity and any other religion, including atheism. What's the proper way to go about having a conversation?
