Well at least she had a good reason for choosing Christianity- altho she preferred Hare Krishna.... :???:

She is starting to remind me of a Brad Pitt type Hollywood activist nutcase... :wink: :lol: :lol:

O'Donnell and meatballs


(CNN) – Delaware Republican Senate nominee Christine O'Donnell says she tried "every other kind of religion," including witchcraft and Buddhism but became a Christian because of her love of Italian food.

"I would have become a Hare Krishna, but I didn't want to become a vegetarian,"
O'Donnell said in an interview with Bill Maher in 1999. "And that is honestly the reason why, because I'm Italian and I love meatballs."

Keep it up Oldtimer I'm sure ODonnell is enjoying the free press the Dems like you are providing her. It sure didn't hurt Palin's reputation when people realized where it was coming from and WHY. :wink: :lol:

The chances of O'Donnell winning the General are slim to none, but it's amusing to watch the Dems. campaign on her religion instead of the issues. It makes them look like the "loons"

:lol: :lol:

OT, what are your feelings and thoughts on "intellectual alternatives to the philosophical morass of postmodern moral relativism."



When she attended a Phoenix Institute program in 2001, Christine O'Donnell was "a joy to have," her former tutor says. Bruce W. Griffin is speaking out on his former student, and says that O'Donnell would "add intellectual and philosophical depth" to the United States Senate should she win in November.


Griffin, an instructor and not a professor, wrote a detailed blog item saying that O'Donnell's thesis on cloning stood out in his mind as "one of the two best papers written for me that summer."


Griffin sent TPM his blog post detailing the three-week Phoenix Institute program focused on the "intellectual alternatives to the philosophical morass of postmodern moral relativism." Their text: C.S. Lewis' 1944 The Abolition of Man.

He said it was a summer job to do "a tutorial at Oxford on postmodernism and natural law."

"Christine O'Donnell was a joy to have in the tutorials: intelligent, engaged, dynamic, good with questions and interested in ideas" he wrote.




The course we did that summer in Oxford is nearly a decade old, but the basic issues we addressed are eternal. Today, too many of the Republic's leaders have abandoned the natural law tradition of the Declaration of Independence for a murky moral relativism--a relativism that is both destructive of democratic values and philosophically bankrupt.


Christine O'Donnell would bring to the US Senate a deepened commitment to the philosophical convictions of the Founding Fathers at a time when the philosophical bankruptcy of too many leaders is mirrored in the economic bankruptcy of the federal government. She would surely add intellectual and philosophical depth to a Senate that at this point in its history badly needs both.

Become a Counsellor or Art Therapist. Gain a rewarding career by studying our nationally recognised Diploma of Transpersonal Counselling, Diploma of Transpersonal Art Therapy; or our Degree in Holistic Counselling. Phoenix Diplomas and Degree have a special focus on psychology, spirituality and holistic approaches to health and wellbeing. This is called the Transpersonal model, based on self awareness, creativity and authenticity.

Well since the Phoenix Institute sounds like a cross between a hippy commune, the hare krishna, the skull and bones club, and Tammy Faye Bakker-- this sounds like a course name some lay instructor would come up with to charge folks lots of money to attend while politically correctly saying they want to turn back the social enviromental clock 150 years...

Sounds like another good place for the rich kids to squander away their money- which doesn't surprise me O'Donnell was there..... :roll:

Yep-- the Tea Party folks got themselves a winner with this one....Probably dozens of old conservatives just spinning in their graves to hear someone like this even being spoke of in the same breath of true old conservatives.... :wink: :p :lol: :lol:

Summer Seminars for the Study of Western Institutions at the University of Notre Dame (USA) and the Neuwaldegg Castle in Vienna, Austria, are designed to foster a better understanding of the Western intellectual tradition among European, Pan-American, and Asian students. These summer programs bring together students and professors to explore the enduring ideas of Western civilization through the disciplines of political philosophy, philosophical anthropology, ethics, literature and law.

The first summer course was held in 1987 at the University of Texas at Tyler (USA). Since 1991 the Phoenix Institute holds its annual summer course at the renowned University of Notre Dame (USA). In 1996, the Institute extended its programs to Europe where from 1996 to 2001 parallel summer courses were held at the University of Oxford (UK). In 2003 the Phoenix Institute moved the European summer course to a more central location in Europe: Austria.

it's easy to take a sentence out of context and smear an education opportunistic..

but the summer program was ran with Oxford and Notre Dame.. the year O'Donnell attended,..

Funny how that Alan Green guy from Florida or wherever is even more loony than this girl. But no one talks about him. Just shows you how bias Oldtimer is, he will try to talk about how in the middle he is but where is his post about Alan Green?
