David R. Carlin- PHILOSOPHER !

His letter today is titled " The silly faith in computers "

    ( Projo , Aug.27) but David Carlin, CCRI Professor Meritless, is

    actually upset about what he perceives as our culture of SKEPTICISM.

    To be sure it won't produce any Hamlets- who was a man of bold

    faith in all things dear to the sagacious professor's heart.

          Faith in Marriage & Family, for example.  Carlin thinks

    it unwise for us to " tolerate ( even encourage ) single parenthood

    PARTICULARLY AMONG THE POOR ".  ( I guess we can wink at single

    parenthood of the well to do ? )

             I think our society is too tolerant of FRAUDS like

    Mr. Carlin in academia .

          Radical feminists - it seems a long time ago - were

    voicing their very RATIONAL skepticism of Marriage & Family.

    Now they are less skeptical about this rock bottom foundation

    of BOURGEOIS SOCIETY. Now they whine about glass ceilings in

    BOURGEOIS corporations .

         I say : Back to skepticism on the sacrosanct FAMILY.

     ( I do love my mommy & daddy ! )
