PLS

PLS

I too would like to address the questions Rob raised concerning PLS. I would like to point to not only 7.10 but also 7.6, 7.8 and 7.9. Newman makes it clear why he believes a Liberal Education benefits society. Do we agree with his conclusions and justifications, and the ways he got there? Is there a problem with making knowledge or a "cultivated intellect" goods in themselves? If Miriam is right and he is making a parallel between or even equating God and knowledge, doesn't that present a heretical problem? ... I hate to simply rehash others' questions, especially on a topic that of course PLS kids would want to talk about, and so is almost cliche, or egotistical, but I think it's pretty important in our lives and in the text.
