VDH: Palin and Obama—What Really is Wisdom?
Posted by Sarah at September 25, 2008 10:34 PM | TrackBackYou should see all the "comments" I got when I sent that around to my kids and my twin sister. She sent it to her kids and other of our nieces and nephews and siblings. UH OH. We are an ecumenical family, many different varieties of Christian religions and strong political leanings, of both ways. Very interesting. The study that came out linking DNA and politics or religion didn't know our family! We have two very liberal children in our combined families, some independents and some very right wing. Makes for interesting discussions, but love and family triumphs all.
I think his take on wisdom definitely is right on, and describes even some of the rabid liberals in our group. We range from PhD's to GED's (with college after). But somewhere most of us were taught wisdom, or perhaps it was "how to get along by doing it yourself." Whatever we call it VDH nailed it.
