Exactly why I didn't major in philosophy. I didn't want to spend four years analyzing the nature of things in general, I wanted to spend four years analyzing the nature of interactions in particular.

And the pope, for all the good he does, can be a poopy-head...

Pope... poop... That's some etymology for you.

Sounds like you knew what you wanted. Well done. Still, I bet you had to read The Republic and some boring Alan Bloom. Plato invented Political Science, dontcha know.

Your little foray into etymology was quite nice. The Pope was talking about the end of the world so I suppose there should be some good eschatological scatalogy thrown in with the etymology. Hey, shit happens.
