Wednesday January 12, 2000

  • "… Love Story, the Internet …" Gore has claimed that he an Tipper were the inspiration for the sappy novel "Love Story" by Erich Segal. Segal, a roommate of Gore's at Harvard said that was ridiculous. He also claimed to have invented the internet, which you know, and he claimed to have held the hearings which led to the clean up of the environmental catastrophe in upstate New York, which he also had to retract.

  • "All the GOP candidates made their way to St. Anselm College…" St. Anselm 1034 - 1109 - The great champion of sound philosophy and of orthodoxy was the pious and learned St. Anselm, Archbishop of Canterbury.

    Born in the year 1034, at Aosta, in Piedmont, he came to France, studied for three years in Burgundy, and in 1059, when he was twenty-five years of age, entered the famous school of Bec, in Normandy, which was the most celebrated school of the eleventh century.

    Three years later he became prior, and in 1078 was made abbot of the monastery, succeeding his countryman, Lanfranc of Pavia, who had been made archbishop of Canterbury. Lanfranc died in 1089, and four years later Anselm was appointed to the see of Canterbury, where he died in 1109.

    Much of St. Thomas Aquinas' teachings rest on the work of St. Anselm.

    -- - from the rise of Scholasticism and St. Anselm to the Summa Theologica of St. Thomas by D.J. Kennedy.
