Walking the walk

Enter by the narrow gate. For the gate is wide and the way is easy that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many. 14 For the gate is narrow and the way is hard that leads to life, and those who find it are few. (Matthew 7:13-14)
It has been a very busy week at work, so I only have a few things to share today:
News from the Duh Department. Science-approved!
She makes a good point.
I was so happy about this–not because Alabama lost, but because Coach Dabo Swinney won. He stood firm when The FFRF demanded that Clemson — a public university — not only require Swinney to “cease” his allegedly unconstitutional religious activities but also that it “train” the coaching staff and “monitor their conduct going forwards.” As it turned out, Clemson backed their coach, and at the end of the College Football Playoff National Championship game he was able to say (as reported to me by the boy), “all the credit, alllll the glory goes to the good Lord number one, and number two to this great group of guys.”
Have a good Thursday. Tomorrow is Friday and then on to the weekend! It is supposed to snow here in flyover country. Do I have enough milk, eggs and bread, peanut butter and guitar strings?

Great post 😀
Go Clemson! It’s the first day of classes here and we’re in the midst of a raging snowstorm. The drive to work was fun. C’est la vie.
Whenever I see the “enter by the narrow gate” verse I think of the illustrated Pilgrims Progress that we had when I was young. That book had a major effect on me when I was a boy!
I think the “science of happiness” guy you linked was my Psych TA. Looks like he’s adjuncting at Wash U now.
And also an Assistant Dean? He got his PhD in 2011. Interesting
I think you are correct.
