Few people read this blog. Even fewer probably care about the content of this post. But even fewer people (read, nobody) can stop me from posting this garbage anyway. I'm doing more research for my Restoration History class, and here's some random notes from our pope, Alexander Campbell (Campbell hated catholics).
In an article titled, "Bad Books," Campbell warns his readers to stay away from books "of mere fiction and fancy" and especially those "of the foul and exciting Romance." Yep, Campbell warns against reading for pleasure because "a habit of reading for amusement simply, becomes so fixed, that science loses all its charms...." With reading romance novels, he predicts "mental delirium" for those who develop this despicable habit. I for one, am committed to maintaining scientific reading for its charms. All of them. So there you have it everybody. Stop reading my blog. It's bad for you. And burn your Harry Potter books.

No wonder I am so mentally delirious...
So apparently, along with the national media, you too don't understand the difference between "is the same as" & "is analogous to."
Are they just handing out Masters degrees up there in Memphis???
