re: #143 William Lewis

Better quote from him than usual.

There must be some British blood in you for that bit of understatement.

Still, the Kansas types may have heard the name Aquinas - I seriously doubt any of the fundies (at least none of the ones I’ve run into of late) have really dug deep enough to have run into the sewers that Tertullian hung out it… < whistles innocently >

My last-finished Donna Leon mystery novel revolved around Tertullian, and one of the characters was ironically nic-named for him.
