A GOOD TREE BRINGETH FORTH GOOD FRUIT, BUT A CORRUPT TREE BRINGETH FORTH EVIL FRUIT.
Hello! I'm a orthodox Catholic. What does that mean? You will soon find out.

What do you mean by "Radical Catholic Web Site"? "Radical" is from the Latin root "radix", meaning of or from the root or roots. That is, going to the foundation or source of something. What I mean by "radical", is the return to the basics, the return to our principles. The enemy is modern day "liberalism" and "libertarianism".

Epistemology, Logic, and all that. Are they relevant?

The principal task of logic is to investigate the nature of correct thinking and valid reasoning, including the laws of rational thought. PROTAGORAS: Truth is relative, it is only a matter of opinion.
SOCRATES: You mean that truth is mere subjective opinion?
PROTAGORAS: Exactly. What is true for you is true for you, and what is true for me, is true for me. Truth is subjective.
SOCRATES: Do you really mean that? That my opinion is true by virtue of its being my opinion?
PROTAGORAS: Indeed I do.
SOCRATES: My opinion is: Truth is absolute, not opinion, and that you, Mr. Protagoras, are absolutely in error. Since this is my opinion, then you must grant that it is true according to your philosophy.
PROTAGORAS: You are quite correct, Socrates. www.fortunecity.com

- Plato's political philosophy rests upon his principles that the individual is more important than society and that it is necessary to know the nature of individuals in order to ascertain the characteristics of a desirable society.
