Status report

So, how am I doing with my year's goal of changing a major opinion? Answer: not too good. I've still got the same stale opinions I did last year.

But for a while there was some hope. For three months—January till April—a JEC reader repeatedly wrote comments on my Thomism C.A.Q. post from last year, trying to convince me of the truth of Thomism. We bantered back and forth, and no opinions were changed, but at least someone cared enough to confront. That's a rare thing, and it means a lot.


In other news, Laura and I (and fifteen others) will be away at Havasupai for the rest of this week. That means there'll be no post on Thursday.

In the meantime, I'd like for readers to respond with a comment describing the last major opinion they changed. What was your last big “aha” moment?
