You've convinced me that you may have a case re Cushingism, but this fly in the ointment hardly spoils the whole jar if you throw it out. If one can learn a great deal from ancient pagans, as St. Thomas Aquinas learned from Aristotle, one can certainly learn for Thomist scholars with whom one may have a serious disagreement about one point. I appreciate your concern. But I also trust you appreciate mine. Otherwise we'd have to throw out most everything in our libraries and nearly everyone in the Catholic hierarchy today and listen to just you, which could become a bit monotonous, as invaluably important as your abiding theme is. And I wouldn't want you to become monotonous. Would you not agree?
