Back at school, still no cpu


I'm in a computer lab in MEL today telling you that I am back on campus at the U of I and I am in classes. Well, I had one class today, but my classes did start.


The only class I had was my Comparative World Literature class. But it was interesting. The class is specifically on eastern literature of the past. We'll be focusing on epics, religious texts (my most excited part), and drama.


The professor started the class today with syllabus stuff, but she also talked about the comparative approach to literature. Check out this whack thought process. It is fairly intriguing, and I believe it applies to my faith.
If you live in one room all of your life, you will know a lot about that room, however, you will know more about the room if you leave the room and see what else is out there. Knowing what else exists helps you to better understand and describe what you have. So for me, I don't consider this a liscence to leave Christianity (why would I?), but I do see it as something Christ's followers need to do. Let's know what else is out there to better be able to articulate our beliefs and what we know about our faith.
