Dr. Clark wrote: “Fascinating autobiography…”
It was fascinating all right. However, I wonder if he abandoned nihilism and sola fide based on the same rationalistic principles. He hasn’t been as clear in giving reasons why he rejected the gospel and joined the Roman Catholic Church. His apostasy is only a few years old (2003 I think), but I haven’t read a detailed account.
Does anyone know if Budziszewski has articulated his reasons for leaving protestantism and joining Rome? I know of a few, but none that elaborate quite as well as why he is no longer a nihilist.
