Theology means God discourse. Discourse has a now obsolete meaning of reason.

Theology is not the recitation of correct facts, it is the apprehension and statement of Beauty.
I don't understand.

"Theology is not the recitation of correct facts, it is the apprehension and statement of Beauty." And he found this how? Oh, that's right, the Orthos and RCs simply consult themselves...

Theology is great if no proof is involved. Each of us has to use our one brain to make the best of our time here on earth. I am firmly in the “agnostic” camp. Raised Catholic, served as an altar boy (back when Latin was required). I will keep questioning in an everlasting search for absolute truth.

NRx, I had hoped this thread would not turn into a string of diatribes. Makes it hard to learn.
Thanks for the link. I found his essay from last month--The Death of Dialogue--worth a read.

Deuteronomy 6:5.
All theology proceeds therefrom.
