He's amazing. It's too bad that his health prevents him from continuing as a tutor there.<br /><br />I'm not completely sure what I'll do after TAC. The Priesthood is a definite possibility. I might also do graduate work in philosophy. I'm not sure. Must pray about it!MaestroJMChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06552734342224710734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1590904241978068986.post-49663978301941146632013-08-20T07:30:09.414-07:002013-08-20T07:30:09.414-07:00Congratulations!

When I visited TAC, Dr. MacArthur's theology class was my favorite because I saw how theology is the culmination—the queen—of the sciences. Dr. McArthur was friends with the "great books curriculum" Thomist Mortimer Adler, too.<br /><br />See also their <a href="http://www.thomasaquinas.edu/a-liberating-education/popes-st-thomas" rel="nofollow">"Popes on St. Thomas" page</a>.<br /><br />Dr. Day—who, in her day, did the same astronomy internship program I did a few years ago—invited me to TAC. Her science classes were very good.<br /><br />What do you plan to do after graduating from TAC?Geremiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11812810552682098086noreply@blogger.com
