The Making of a Philosopher

Some random web surfing one morning discovered the story to which I link you below. It was posted almost exactly two years ago now, but it's new to me, and I find it very affecting. The story of a young man who thought he had everything Figured Out -- a Christian fundamentalist planning on full time ministry, and attending a college that seems to have been designed NOT to challenge such as him. But he decided he didn't have everything figured out after all.  He encountered philosophy and with it ... real questioning. I leave you to discover the specifics. http://www.philosophynews.com/post/2015/09/01/When-a-Fundamentalist-Finds-Philosophy.aspx
