Yep, I got the "be an individual...and get back into line" speech yesterday. Also I sent in my RA application for next year. Hehe my pretties *cackles like wicked witch, gets on broomstick, and rides away in search of victims..er, um the narrator meant "residents"* Finally meeting some people on the site
. For those of you who suggested I put up drag pics. Unfortunally, my camcorder was broke
and I got nothing, but PRIDE meeting Tuesday. So, hopefully someone had a digital camera with them at the show!


re: process philosophy- anything by David Griffin is excellent. He is THE MAN when it comes to process philosohpy right now. Of course, you should also browse through Process and Reality by Alfred North Whitehead, but don't expect to understand it--I'd suggest just reading the last chapter, actually. The rest is mostly epistemlogy and metaphysics that gets pretty dry if you aren't familiar with LOTS of history of philosophy (which is why my first suggestion is always to go back to Plato and Aristotle--most of Process and Reality is about the Greeks...).
Inasmuch as theology is concerned...I'm not a big fan. Theology is not my field--philosophy of religion, specifically Christianity, was my field. Some of my fav Christian thinkers were Hume, Kierkegaard, Luther, Kierkegaard, CS Lewis, Doestoivski, and maybe I'd even group in Nietzche and Camus as Christian thinkers (but I'm pretty controversial. there...).
Oh yes, and try and get a copy of John Hick's "Evil and the God of Love." As a theist undergraduate student, your biggest problem will be asshole professors that ask "if God is omnipotent and omnibenevolent, then why is there genuine evil in the world?" That is, theodicy. John Hick in "Evil and the God of Love" presents a clear and valid defense of his belief that there is a Christian God that is both omnibenevolent and omnipotent. John Hick is one of my favorite Christian philosophers, and I'm sure you'd enjoy anything he wrote.
The authors I suggested are rather well known, and so you shouldnt have too much trouble bringing them up in classes with your professors. The authors you mentioned I'd not heard of. It could be that I'm just out of the loop right now, but I've only been out of grad school for a year, so I'd imagine that your professors have led you to them because they studied under them (BEWARE of that, by the way...)....or maybe you just happened on them at the library.
Regardless--my advice is to stick close to the classics until you absolutely have to read something else. And the christian philosophers I mentioned, of course.
Good Luck to ya,
