My mom had to tell me that I spelled cabbage wrong the first posting (cabage)! Guess I have to own my stuff, and maybe own the statement as well.
Thanks Mom.

. . .stupid as a cabbage,
Read something today that made me laugh, then think. Wanted to post it to see what it's effect might be on you as well.
I'm reading a book by Kelly Kullberg, called Finding God Beyond Harvard. She is a former chaplain at Harvard. Not very far into the book to be able to recommend it, but she quotes one of my favorite authors, Dallas Willard, and like I said, it's worth sharing.
"We live in a culture that has for centuries now cultivated the idea that the skeptical person is always smarter than one who believes. You can be almost as stupid as a cabbage, as long as you doubt. . .Today it is the skeptics who are the social conformists."
True that!
