91�����

Students greatly enjoyed this morning�s class and its discussion of Pascal�s �Wager.� The conversation focused on the terms of the wager and their implications � the finite vs. the infinite, the difference between pleasure and true happiness, the existence of objective truth and morality, and whether we are capable of recognizing them. A good many students attended the midday Mass immediately afterward.

At lunch students looked forward to this afternoon�s class, which will examine St. 91����֙s proof for the existence of God in the order of nature, complemented by the microcosm of that order on display in Jean Henri Fabre�s account of the life of the bee. Later this afternoon there will be recreation and altar-server training. Then, tonight is �Arts and Fire Night� � consisting of the highly anticipated production of Comedy of Errors, praying at the outdoor Stations of the Cross, and music and s�mores by the bonfire!

On Saturday morning, the group will take a long hike in the Los Padres National Forest. Look out for a post and photos later in the day.
