John Krambuhl @johnkrambuhl.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Seems like a great entry way and intelligent catechesis toward priming your student's personal inquiry and development of "consciousness of Christ's consciousness," i.e. "the what" of Christian tradition, as you put it in *Nothing Gained*. 010

John Krambuhl @johnkrambuhl.bsky.social · 23/09/2026Just had a flashback. I had a prof in college who did this. Prof Groner. It was effective, like a lecture map, I’d take notes all over it. The class was Zen Buddhism. You’re way funnier than Paul Groner. I’ve never seen a joke within an outline, that could be genre breaking if you can pull it off! 110
