Blogs and Wisdom

Justin Taylor has an excellent piece on The Death of Wisdom that is particularly apropos for those of us who write, and read, blogs. The longer piece by Alan Jacobs (which Taylor cites) is also well worth the read in considering how we take in information, and how - and to what extent - a blog can promote wisdom, rather than meaningless tripe.

As I read Jacobs' piece, I was particularly grateful for such a charitable, thoughtful readership. Thank you for making this a pleasure for me and others.
