	The Monolatry of Pat Robertson by Karen Kwiatkowski
		Robertson, apparently speaking for many so-called Christians, stated "The entire world is being convulsed by a religious struggle; the struggle is whether the moon god of Mecca, known as Allah, is supreme, or whether the Judeo-Christian Jehovah God of the Bible is supreme."
		Robertson and his ilk of political-religious self-promoters have seized on something that apparently sells well to the religiously fearful.
		And Pat Robertson tells me that Christians who honor Jesus’ advice of rendering unto Caesar his, and to God His, or Christians who appreciate Augustine’s conception of the nature of the real City of God, are just out of touch these days.

	Pat Robertson's Katrina Cash
		Robertson recently ignited a media firestorm when he called for the assassination of Venezuelan president Hugo Chávez during a broadcast of The 700 Club.
		Robertson assiduously cultivates his celebrity with remarks like these, casting himself as a divisive bigot to his foes and a righteous prophet to his allies in Christian right circles.
		And Robertson's legal foundation, the American Center for Law and Justice, is spearheading the effort to rally right-wing Christian support for Judge John G. Roberts Jr.'s confirmation as Chief Justice of the Supreme Court.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Miracle
		In illustration we have the multiplication of loaves by Jesus (John, vi), the changing of water into wine at Cana (John, ii) -- for the moisture of the air by natural and artificial processes is changed into wine -- or the sudden healing of a large extent of diseased tissue by a draught of water.
		These miracles, summarized in the answer of Jesus to the messengers of John (Matt., xi 5), are explained by the Fathers of the Church with reference to the ills of the soul (ST III:44).
		He declares that His miracles have greater evidential value than the testimony of John the Baptist (John, v, 36); their logical and theological force as evidences is expressed by Nicodemus (John, iii, 2).

		Robertson and Falwell and all others of their ilk need to go away and leave decent people alone.

		The paper, which grew out of Robertson's courses in Shakespeare and Text Markup, examined some of the language in Shakespeare's popular tragedy and concluded that Romeo and Juliet's "love" was doomed because it was self-centered rather than "other" centered.
		Although the paper was well received, Robertson was dismayed to discover that she was the only undergraduate presenter at the conference.
		Robertson clearly impressed the conference attendees: "By the time I had left the conference, I had gotten an offer from a university for a paid position in research, and one dean wanted to contact me about possible research opportunities with his university."

	Dennis H. Robertson
		Dennis H. Robertson had the classical life of an Edwardian gentleman: graduated from Eton, read classics at Trinity College, Cambridge, fought in World War I, returned as a fellow to Cambridge, worked at the Treasury during World War II and finally was knighted.
		He introduced a business cycle theory (1915) in the Continental tradition and his highly successful little 1922 textbook and his more elaborate 1926 volume on monetary theory was littered with insights derived from Knut Wicksell and the Stockholm School (as well as quotations from Alice in Wonderland - a perennial Robertsonian habit).
		In 1937, Robertson engaged his old friend John Maynard Keynes in a famous debate over the savings-investment relationship in the General Theory.

The entire Sterner family have always agreed that John was a sergeant in Mühlenberg's outfit (originally a regiment) but known to none was his Company.
		After the War John, like his father, lived in North- ampton County and was a farmer, doubtless working his fa- ther's place.
		From John Jr's petition it is safe to assume that he died late in 1793.
