I don't have a PhD. I am not an academic theologian by training. They know far more than me in lots of other areas. There are lots of things about the church that I do not know. I found a point that convinced me (Maximus) and am working out from there, playing connect the dots for the last 12 years. <br /><br />And practically everything I write is already in good books. I am not that smart (really). It is just that people don't read good books or haven't gotten to those ones yet. Very little of what I write is an original contribution by me. Such it has been and such it will always be. I try to keep my mouth shut about things I don't know. And I'm used to arguing with Protestants and Catholics and they aren't used to arguing with Orthodox or that familiar with Orthodox theology. I have a natural advantage, which makes it look easy.Acolyte4236https://www.blogger.com/profile/06247421363309732839noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25740524.post-63870212077312325892010-08-23T23:04:49.085-04:002010-08-23T23:04:49.085-04:00I love it when Perry shows up to an "Orthodox...I love it when Perry shows up to an "Orthodox are wrong" post on a Lutheran blog--especially one like Gottesdienst. Of course, I can't keep up with it all but I surely appreciate his knowledge and abilities. He get 'em thinkin'.Dixiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08511317203353075644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25740524.post-10685704478745872372010-08-23T21:09:33.698-04:002010-08-23T21:09:33.698-04:00The best comment on there was yours.
