Love it: splitting hairs, contradiction, dogmatic imperialism, narcissistic arrogance, epistemology, idealism, realism, phenomenology... and, ah yes discernment and the practical realism of getting on with it. Canadians, dealing with the Stanley Cup playoffs deal with these sublime quandaries on a nightly basis.  Sadly, as with "youze" Americans and baseball, rather than pondering the philosophical underlays of these fundamental questions that occupied Parmenides, Socrates, Plato, Descartes, Kant and Benedict XVI, we just throw a bottle (empty of course), or similar exhortation, on behalf of the entire Boston fan base, at the Ottawa Senator players or go for a brew or two and vent.
Serious Catholics have a simpler answer on the less important "theologies": do now; guilt after, then fagget it.
The teaching mission - missed opportunity - of Church is clear: discernment in community with wisdom.
Did I miss "sexism"?
