Reblog of Jeff KC9UNZ:
Reblog via Jeff KC9UNZ Thank you Guardian for clearly pointing fingers. IMHO children (and adults) don't learn anything unless they suffer the consequences of their actions whether it be climate warming or electoral choice.

Aquinas in Orvieto
I am a little behind in my travelogue. Our seminar has begun. Matthew Fox walks us through his work on Aquinas in the morning and we join together in some smaller artistic expression groups in the afternoon punctuated by a two hour multi-course Italian “lunch”.
