The Divinity School Address

Wow that was a lot to take in. I was very confused by the selection of big words. I got a little bored with this passage but at the same time I just didn't get why someone would do this. I thought it was really rude and not very smart to talk bad about God to a Religious school. I can understand where Harvard is coming from because I have gone to Religious schools all my life and if we had a speaker who came and talked to us like he did there would be an uproar and many people would be upset.

    Christian,

    This post seems shorter than it should be. Put another way, I am really interested in your views and your characterization of Emerson's address as "rude"--but as reader I wanted to understand them better (which would require your exploring them at greater length--something I hope you can do in future posts!)
