Andrew Siwko’s Blog #2

He made some interesting comments on the Socratic Method early on.

Franklin’s view of religion appears rather contrarian and fluid.

It looks like he’s about to run into trouble after demanding a dowry from the parents of a young lady….

Father spoke of the example of the Holy Family. I thought this was particularly pertinent for me. I need to be a better example.
