Catholic Word of the Day: SOCRATIC METHOD, 10-13-09
CatholicReference.net ^ | 10-13-09 | Fr. John Hardon's Modern Catholic Dictionary

Featured Term (selected at random):

SOCRATIC METHOD

Originally used by Socrates but adopted by many Christian writers, especially in the Augustinian tradition, as a way of reaching the truth. It consists in using questions and answers in a planned series in order to understand a given subject, reach a logical conclusion, or refute a certain position. It has become the basis of catechetical instruction since early Christian times.

The good news is, once you graduate you'll never have to fool with Pennoyer again.

Personal jurisdictional issues have moved on in the intervening millenia . . . .

. . . and law school profs aren't even sure where the courthouse is. (I hated law school but loved law practice. Most real lawyers do. The ones who enjoy law school wind up teaching there, which is good because it keeps them out of the real lawyers' hair.)
