Toe In The Bosphorus

Beauty Will Save The World

Author: Peter B

I am an Orthodox Christian who loves history, philosophy, home cooking, and poetry. I argued my way to a philosophy degree, and dropped out of seminary; ABD, working on my honorary doctorate. I live in South Carolina with my wife and sons, and drink instant coffee as an act of first-world asceticism.
