The person who is here commemorated tried to remove superstition from human intellectual efforts.
So today Philosophy students from all over the world come to this place to rub or kiss the toe of this statue; believing that this act will help to clear up their reasoning.

For years I taught History and Philosophy at a community college in Central Pennsylvania. Now I am learning all sorts of things, from growing veggies and fruit, to fixing small engines and maintaining home systems. I am learning to live deliberately. Still love to hear from my past students, though. So drop me a line and tell me what you are up to.
