The challenge, however, is figuring out how our pre-understanding is affecting us and how to dislodge ourselves from that pre-understanding if necessary. Great point.

I just finished reading "Jesus Made in America." It is a fantastic survey of the American way of making Jesus into a wax nose that can be shaped for every cultural era in America since the Puritan founders. I think you will really enjoy this book and I highly recommend it. http://www.ivpress.com/cgi-ivpress/book.pl/code=2849 Good thoughts.

I wracked my brain (well, maybe not that hard) trying to think up a witty retort to Chris' quip, but alas, I have come up with nothing. Nuts! :| Actually, I had not focused on the character who sang the original quotation; rather, when I was writing, I was wondering whether someone might be bothered at the use of the musical - not that I am suggesting anything. ;) Thank you, Chris and Bob.

A blog which its first post by quoting a Roman Catholic nun would normally make me nervous, but I'm sure that this one is an exception. :-) Welcome to the flogosphere, Brent!

Yes, the date was wrong for a while. It was right at first (I think), but it seems to have changed after I went through and changed some WordPress global options. I am still learning WordPress software, so I figure that I will have some more glitches like this as I get things up and running. Thanks, Todd, for your kind words.
