Third Millennial Templar He's majoring in Theology and Philosophy at Concordia University (I'm taking Math Courses) and hopes to get a scholarship to attend the University of Notre Dame in the US for his Phd's (in both). Above link is to a more introductory blog post of his while below is the main link.
Sent an email to Jon and intended to send it to Blackblade but he keeps not being on when I am on, how flaky.
So I'm posting it here, as far as I can tell the entries are interesting and informative and generally leave me puzzled in an interesting way.
He also has a white board which he tosses ideas onto and stuff, he's like House but for Theology!
Discussion about the blog could go here, but if you have any particular replies and generally wanna discuss theology and stuff with him directly you should just leave comments at his blog, as far as I know he spends his free time engaged in active discussion with the commentators and in the comments at other similar blogs, apparently he was name dropped along with other big philosophy bloggers which made him giddy but I can't recall who.

The last sentence of his first post bothers me:
quote:Therefore, if ever I want to go on and do a thesis in Modal logic, or Epistemology, I will have to find good arguments to disqualify not only Naturalism, but also Idealism, and to promote something like Theistic Exemplarism.
These do not strike me as the words of someone who is seeking truth, but the words of someone who wishes to learn more compelling arguments to justify what he already believes.

On a related personal note, some might remember that I started a cognitive science/philosophy blog some time back. This week I hosted the latest edition of the Philosophers' Carnival, which has been really awesome for traffic (I've had something like a 2000% increase in traffic), and was just a cool experience in general.

Huh, Strider, if you've been involved in the Philosopher's Carnival, you might've had some contact with Richard Chappell from Philosophy Etc. I overlapped with that guy a bit in grad school.
Tom, I don't think you need to read that passage so shallowly. A lot of people pick a view as a working hypothesis and see how well they can defend it, as a way of eventually evaluating it for truth.

Yeah Destineer, we emailed back and forth a little bit. Mostly to do with practicalities of hosting.
