Gentle Readers,<\/p>\n

I know it’s been more than two weeks since I made any new top-level articles, but I hope to resume doing it soon.\u00a0 This was because: i) I got very involved arguing with people on the comment sections of my blog, with consequent fatigue, and ii) I’m in the process of having my wisdom teeth removed (3 on Monday and 1 in a few hours).\u00a0 I’m not in a whole lot of pain, but any encouragement is still welcome.<\/p>\n

Nevertheless, sometime soon I hope to resume where I left off, trying to talk about general relativity in an accessible way. It’s been a long time since I’ve had a physics post, and I’m beginning to miss them.<\/p>\n

I’m also going to continue talking about theology, but in a somewhat less argumentative way.\u00a0 As St. Lewis says in\u00a0Reflections on the Psalms<\/a>, “A man can’t be always defending the truth; there must be a time to feed on it.”\u00a0 So for the next little while, I’ll be focussing more on explaining\u00a0what\u00a0<\/em>I believe than\u00a0why <\/em>I believe it (though of course the two things are connected!).\u00a0 Hopefully this will also result in those posts being more accessible to ordinary readers: one of the hazards of debate is that one loses track of any audience besides the people one is arguing with.<\/p>\n

So in a few days, Lord willing, I will return to this endeavor with more wisdom, if fewer teeth.\u00a0 May those still reading this blog be blessed, may those who have given up on it be blessed, and may those who never started reading it also be blessed.\u00a0 Amen.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
