Re: [asa] Random and design

Karl commented: " Many if not most of the significant Patristic writings
were done not to set up an "academic" systematic theology. They were
done as pastoral works to address specific pastoral concerns within their
parishes and sees."

I understand that. I think. My concern with the current class is
pastoral. I John fits.

Systematic theology is far from my aims. I do not mean to denigrate it,
but there are times to address it and times to stay away.

Thanks.
