When I was more active in the FR Wars of Religion, the chief benefit to me was a deepened understanding of the Incarnation.
I also sympathized more and more with Dorothy Sayer's suggestion that we should start teaching disputation to kids at around 10-11 years old ... when they're smart alecs anyway. She meant real disputation, not sophistry fests, with people staying on topic and being called out by the teacher for sophistries and fallacies.
My fifth grade teacher was doing post-graduate work in logic at Columbia. As soon as we got the required stuff out of the way, we would do logic puzzles. He also read Animal Farm to us! Can you imagine that today?
Anyway, I wish the opponents of the dogma would read the relevant part of the Summa. It would save time.
Thanks again.
