Maybe they were Montaigna...I had to look up Berean. Maybe they were Montaignan, but I doubt it. He got his philosophy in part from the great Classical authors: philosophies such as Skepticism and Stoicism were important to him. And I doubt he'd think "don't believe a work I say until you run it by the Scriptures"; though he was a Catholic, he was a relativist and wasn't a great believer in ultimate truths.Altoon Sultanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16743040814034732581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7658518583188826551.post-65836461323070092292015-02-05T10:35:14.896-05:002015-02-05T10:35:14.896-05:00I'll get right on the Bakewell. Sounds good.....I'll get right on the Bakewell. Sounds good....right in line with the Stevenson I picked-up here, "We can know others only by ourselves."<br />He also sounds a little "Berean", as in Acts 17:11, "don't believe a word I say until you've run it by the Scriptures..."<br />Don't you think everyone is at least one good book? That is always one of the back-programs I have running at funerals...<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7658518583188826551.post-16822322036296950032015-02-04T17:44:40.844-05:002015-02-04T17:44:40.844-05:00I'm so glad you like it, Toni.
