I've got pieces of April

So far the beginning of April has been about the warmest since 1910 or so. Exceedingly nice. The last couple three years it just hasn't warmed up till June. So, quite nice that the kids can get out of the house and play without getting frostbite.

We went to Johnson's house last night. This time, with the decent weather and longer daylight, the kids played outside for the evening while we had our study.

Saturday is a school day for me. I've got a research paper to write, and I need to get cracking on that.

I read something the other day that sparked a thought. It was something on the lefty/liberal/new agey/namby-pamby philosophy of today, and this writer made the comment of how some ascpect of it went all the way back to William of Ockham in the 14th century. And you see that elsewhere, how philosophies are "traced back". I thought though, sure there are influences, but thought really isn't passed down and passed along, like on some conveyor belt. Rather, it's alway there. We're born with it. I mean, we're born fallen creatures, and we naturally have the inclination to build philosophies that exclude God. We don't need to have some ways of thinking handed to us.
