What atheists Kant quite grasp
Great article in the Christian Science Monitor today about the limits of reason by author Dinesh D'Souza. In the late 1700s, the great Enlightenment philosopher Immanuel Kant provided an argument against atheism that to this day has yet to be refuted. Basically, atheists believe everything can be explained through reason and science. But the reality as Kant plainly reveals in his "Critique of Pure Reason", is that humans are limited by their apparatus of perception. It's an excellent read.

Rockies Mountain High
What the Colorado Rockies have done in the last month is simply astounding. Winning 13 of 14 games to end the season to force a one-game playoff. Winning that game. Sweeping the Phillies in the division series. Sweeping the Diamondbacks in the NLCS. That adds up to 21 wins in 22 games. Inconceivable. As impressive as the Twins run to the division title was last year – and it was oh-so personally gratifying – it pales in comparison to what the Rockies are doing. Cleveland or Boston will have their hands full in the World Series.
Short and sweet today. Got to run. Big day tomorrow. Hopefully, I won't have to dodge a book thrown at me.
Until next time…
