wisdom holy-places burning

wisdom thinking differences
In any fairly large and talkative community such as a university there is always the danger that those who think alike should gravitate together where they will henceforth encounter opposition only in the emasculated form of rumour that the outsiders say thus and thus.

Each group hears not the best, but the worst, that the other group can say. C. S. Lewis

plato doctors catholic

Catholicism is accused of being too much like all the other religions; Protestantism of being insufficiently like a religion at all. Hence Plato, with his transcendent Forms, is the doctor of Protestants; Aristotle, with his immanent Forms, the doctor of Catholics. C. S. Lewis
