I feel like i've been less thoughtful in college than i was in high school, and now i come to realise that is not not necessarily a bad thing. in high school, as now, i was relatively well-read for my age and grasp my personal shortcomings relatively well. however, the thought patterns people tend to engage in, at least in my experience, during those years are not only self-loathing narcissism, but counter-productive. that is to say, when i was thoughtful, it was really just folly. as college progressed, i simply grew out of a lot of things that needed to be left behind.
the questions i struggle with now are the same as they were then, but now i actually have answers, sometimes from unexpected places. i intend to write about these questions, and more that have been raised as i probe further, especially concerning theological ethics in relation to ecclesiology. i think that, right now, is the focal point.
also, i should update my old good/bad list. those two posts were the only good ones i think i ever did on this thing.
