Excerpt: There is little doubt that philosophy had a great impact on the Church during her history, and that there has been an interesting interrelationship between philosophy and theology. An Italian theologian of the Middle Ages showed how philosophy and theology contribute to each other, and he helped to develop the distinction between the two. He defined theology as "that which is based on faith and concerned with the beliefs of man" and philosophy as "that which man knows on the basis of his reasoning power." While theology attempts to seek an understanding of God through faith, with these definitions he seemed to be saying that philosophy seeks knowledge of Him through reason. . . . |

Excerpt: Speaking from the Radio Room of the White House, he [President Truman] began with these memorable words: "This is a solemn but a glorious hour." Later in his speech, he reminded his audience that victory was only half won and that much work still lay ahead. Although my father didn't know he would soon head the American Graves Registration Command (AGRC) in Europe and be in charge of the return of American war dead to the United States, he was of course grateful to hear the President also remind people of the tragic losses of life incurred because of the war: "Our rejoicing is sobered and subdued by a supreme consciousness of the terrible price we have paid to rid the world of Hitler and his evil band. Let us not forget, my fellow Americans, the sorrow and the heartache which today abides in the homes of so many of our neighbors. . . ." (President Truman's V-E Day Address) |

Excerpt: Suddenly I felt at home in this unfamiliar apartment, because everything inside was recognizable: the refinished mahogany tables, the Oriental rugs, the hassock Dad had bought in Tunis, and the many souvenirs from Europe that were now displayed on table tops and in bookcases. During the Christmas Eve service a few nights later at St. George's Church on Stuyvesant Square, my parents, my brother, and I joined in the singing of carols and the reciting of prayers. The prayer in the church bulletin seemed particularly apt, I thought, as I read it: "May we be lifted above anxiety, loneliness, and disappointment by the coming of thy Son." After the service, we stepped out into the frigid New York night. It had been some time since the four of us had been together as a family . . . .(Jean's visit home during Christmas vacation from college) |
