...Development (HUD) identified the apartments as “troubled” property in need of repairs to remain viable. Aware that the apartments needed resources for extensive renovation—and that their land was an obvious site for University expansion—the Charlesview Board of Directors approached Harvard in 2003 seeking a deal that would result in a better facility. Since then, the Board has rejected two offers from Harvard, maintaining that those sites lacked adequate access to amenities like public transportation. “It’s not a Harvard takeover.

Since our minds are trained from a young age to require evidence, proof, and arguments before accepting a concept, theorem, or idea as legitimate, it is natural and expected that we employ this method when addressing matters of religion. While I cannot criticize the analytical approach of most Harvard students, I lament that people who employ this approach tend to look down on those who simply accept that certain events happened or that certain ideas are true based on faith.

But I'm the decider, and I decide what is best. And what's best...
...subtle clue of Benedict's approach was written last week into the Good Friday script for the Way of the Cross ceremony, an evening event at the Coliseum reintroduced by John Paul and an annual source of powerful television images and photography. The new Pope would certainly not do away with the live coverage of the "Via Crucis," but would make one change: the actors who read the meditations along the stations would not be stars, and would not even have their faces shown on television. Benedict wanted nothing distracting the faithful from the story and meaning of the Passion...
