Another Step Closer!

Well I got all my enrollment stuff for college yesterday! I filled it all in today and I'm so excited! The subjects I'll be doing are all compulsary first year ones. The 5 subjects I'm doing are:

Biblical Survey B
Intro to Hermenuetics
Church History Survery
Christian Living Seminar II
Intro to Psychology and Councilling

I'm really excited about the last 2 subjects, but I have no doubt they'll all be fantastic. I'm sure there will be things I'm not so excited about, but it will all be helpful to know and I'll enjoy knowing it, even if I don't always enjoy learning it. I'm not the biggest fan of Hermeneuitcs, but it will still be good to do. For every 3 hour class (which they all are) I'm supposed to do 6 hours outside of class, so I think it's going to be pretty full on. That's 15 contact hours a week, but another 30 on top of that study. Whoa!

Only 12 days to go until I start college! YAY!

    hehe, they told us a similar thing regarding hours, but i usually did heaps less than the number of contact hours at home.

    oh, and what on earth is Hermenuetics?

    Haha! Dad asked me the same thing. It's basically a subject on exegesis. I have trouble explaining it, so here's a dictionary definition!

    1. The theory and methodology of interpretation, especially of scriptural text.
    2. The branch of theology that deals with principles of exegesis

    ok...so, what's exegesis?
    Ludicrousity said...
    Pulling apart a text to understand it's meaning. It's about discovering everything behind the text, like it's author, it's intended audience, it's context, the origins of the words in their original language, all that kind of stuff. It's about understanding what the text meant then and there, so you can understand the meaning of it here and now.

    What school are you at Jill?

    Crazy McGarnickle... I never thought they'd do a subject on homosexuals at a Bible College. The times are a changin'.
    Ludicrousity said...
    Um, what? Are you seeing things that aren't there again Danny?
    Dboy said...
    Maybe, depends which one of you is asking. Not you, you! The green one!

    The bible is a book of man-made mythology. There was no 'exodus,' Moses COULDN'T have authored the books written AFTER his supposed death. There is no contemporarily written record of Jesus. Christianity is actually Paulism.

    People who believe mythologies to be historical truths are delusional.

    I hope this clears things up.

    Good luck with school.

    And don't forget to learn something useful in school, like nursing or engineering.

    Life's too short.

    What a load of rubbish.
    Someone has obviously not done their homework (however it sounds suspicously like Martin pulling another one of his tricks!).
    Ludicrousity said...
    Yeah, even before I read your reply Danny I thought it was Martin playing the Devil's advocate. Nice try Martin. Once again you are transparent! :)

    Actually, no, nuthin to do with whoever this martin guys is, sorry. Ah think you've got you a genuine anonymous! BUT, it behoves you to consider his/her position. Why is he/she wrong?? Have you done your homework, hmmm?
    Ludicrousity said...
    Are you sure it's not you revhead?
    Dboy said...
    Bollocks I say.

    If it wasn't Martin, he would've posted already.

    And yes, I've done the mounatins of homework. So much it makes me frustrated to think of going back over it all. You don't get through a Philosophy major as a Christian without having your faith hardened and logically founded.
