I had my fill of fun yesterday. Wonderful meal and a beautiful toast to the Teacher. Hope you all enjoyed yesterday.

Happy 20th

Fascinating

Yes, the death of our Boston terrier prompted our discussion.

Just a quick note...EP is very kid friendly. We discussed death and dying last night at dinner. My 7 year old out of the blue says "people are worried more about being dead and what things are like after they die that they dont enjoy living!" "Just enjoy things dont be worried about dying because you won't feel nothing. Right Daddy?" Exactly son.

Excellent posts here!

Elayne,

I would be up for interview. I am raising my sons as Epicureans. Quite nice.

Anyway, I look forward to your writings.

Totally agree

Teaching my sons the beauty of nature. Helping them to see that the idealized or Platonic world of their peers is all fantasy.

Principle Doctrines, the Four Part Remedy, Lucretius, and Thus Purred Catius Cat is the curriculum.

I would buy one

elli I bow to your wisdom. I am useless anyway. I know very little. Happy 20th anyway.

Platonizing is the very root of all wars. Some buffoon takes over a nation with a vision of an ideal world. Plato and his minions have created a world of division. Platonism is a mental disease.

Happy 20th Friends!

And isnt it funny how they are calling it a cult, when in fact, most people are cultish in their devotion to sports teams and the like!

The 20th is a new favorite day here at our house. We do fun things. Eat a good meal. It's cool too since my 7 year old's birthday is January 20th. On April 20th, we are going to check out some dinosaur fossils and investigate the science of the Big Bang at our science museum.

Move all the art. Rebuild the Forum. No more Vatican.

I totally agree. The treasures of Hellas are forgotten! Only if we could have Alexandria and her library!

I agree with Cassius. Good points.

Sad to see so many afraid of losing a temple.

I am not sure, but I believe he quoted that and other sundry verses. I just cut to the chase.
