I think it deserves a post of its own. <BR/><BR/>I'd like to hear more from Girard about the 10 Commandments! I hope he can do a book or essay about them. It seems as if they are a source of contemplation for him. I could learn a lot!Porthoshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15068816321548529889noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37222179.post-26160796442624522562007-03-18T10:40:00.000-04:002007-03-18T10:40:00.000-04:00I have Discovering Girard and have glanced through...I have <I>Discovering Girard</I> and have glanced through it but have not read it through. (This was a year or two ago, when I was starting to feel the need to get into theological basics rather than recyle Girard basics . . .) If you ask me real hard, I'll read it and give an informal Massketeer review (it's pretty short). Offhand, I think it is like Fleming's Girard primer, and does not have anything breathtakingly new for folks like us that have been through most of the primary and much of the secondary material already.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the tip on COV&R resources. I will try to get to them!Porthoshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15068816321548529889noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37222179.post-75455746943862414592007-03-18T09:42:00.000-04:002007-03-18T09:42:00.000-04:00The links at the COVR site are fine.

Girard's video interview is superb.<BR/><BR/>http://www.transeuropalibri.it/video/video_gerard.php<BR/><BR/>His insights on the 10 commandments vs. hedonism; competitiveness vs. aggression; the importance of the "simplistic" yet essential concepts of Heaven, Purgatory, Hell; and sacrifice are all worthy wading through the Italian questions and translations.Athoshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09158421880497827083noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37222179.post-29351460293397802982007-03-18T05:55:00.000-04:002007-03-18T05:55:00.000-04:00Excellent notice, Porthos.
