Furthermore…

I happened to see one of Bishop Sheen’s TV talks about what constitutes a proper liberal education. Although this talk was given many years ago, through the miracle of truth always remaining the same, this talk would make an excellent orientation film for young students today just starting out in their college careers. Most kids today probably haven’t heard anything even resembling the sagacity and grasp of the meaning of life and its purposes that is contained in Bishop Sheen’s short presentation. It would be a simple matter to preface it or follow it up with a few remarks refocusing it on the way we see things in the present day (and why we might be better off seeing things the way the Bishop saw them many moons ago!) to make sure it is received according to the mode (mod) of the receiver (adolescent).
