Thank you for your comments and ...Dear Le Penseur,<br /><br />Thank you for your comments and for taking the time and effort to write them in English. Danke, sehr aufmerksam.<br /><br />I’m always happy for ideas to be shared across the liberal/conservative boundary (which is not always as clear or rigid as many people think it is) so please feel free to point readers of your blog to other things I have written. It’s perhaps worth saying that, personally, I continue to find a great deal of worth to be found in two writers, Eric Voegelin and Michael Oakeshott, who are often cited by those calling themselves conservatives, even though I wouldn’t (generally) use the adjective “conservative” about my own political-theological position. <br /><br />Mit freundlichem Gruß,<br /><br />AndrewAndrew James Brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02693417061963197121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5144051388547159240.post-91933379879309668902020-12-08T19:02:45.328+00:002020-12-08T19:02:45.328+00:00Reverend and Dear Sir,
What an excellent and thou...Reverend and Dear Sir,<br /><br />What an excellent and thought-inspiring article! I have linked it to our LePenseur-Blog, so that our readers can share your interesting views on Advent and Christmas. To find Nietzsche, so to speak, gathered around the crib (along with oxen, shepherds and Magi) is certainly a rather unconventional, but striking idea which I was avid to acquaint my readers with.<br /><br />In case you take <i>en revanche</i> a look at »LePenseur« — please don't faint ;-) ... our blog is, no doubt, rather far away from the comfortable common paths of »liberalism« (as it is understood especially in the U.S.A.), and the self-description in the blog-title – viz. »libertarian-conservative-nonconformist« (the last word not to be construed in a »denominational« sense, of course!) – describes our views quite adequately, so that I shouldn't be too surprised, if you feel a bit puzzled, sometimes .... But nevertheless: to »think outside the box« is the basis for all progress, isn't it? In both directions, N.B.!<br /><br />Once again, if you don't raise objections, I plan to set up links to your future sermons occasionally, and remain<br /><br />Yours sincerely<br /><br />LePenseur<br /><br /><br />P.S.: I apologize for eventual mistakes and/or unidiomatic phrases — almost inevitable for a non-native English speaker, <i>hélàs</i> ...<br />Le Penseurhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06665587946210444072noreply@blogger.com
