There goes Original Sin!

I don't need theology after all. It's in the part about "defect" in which notion consists passion or whatever he says. Yes, life makes even more sense with theology - because it makes sense that there should be an additional reason why men are so dumb - why they do not learn quickly - why virtue is difficult - that sort of thing. But here theology would be like a third leg - although making sense of life theology is not a third leg. Okay - sorry to see you go, original sin, but it will make my thesis shorter and easier and cleaner! : ) And "original sin" is not a magical ingredient like grace is not quite a 'magical ingredient' either. If I understand this natural stuff original sin will take on some of these categories - a slowing or handicap in some, I guess, and an intensity of others.
