Grizzly Basketball description

I'm having a problem understanding. Are Jesuits not allowed to set up their own forums? If so, I suggest we set up a Gonzaga forum for them right here on egriz. :thumb:

At Gonzaga, athletics are rooted in the Jesuit tradition of educating the whole person – mind, body and spirit … Men's sports at Gonzaga include baseball, basketball, cross country, golf, rowing, soccer and tennis.

As Jesuit, we are inspired by the vision of Christ at work in the world, transforming it by His love, and calling men and women to work with Him in loving service of the human community.


Oh CDAGRIZZZZZZ ...



Are you going to teach us why the education of the "whole person" and the integration of "mind, body and spirit" are distinguishable Jesuit traditions in college athletics? Do you really believe it? We're talking college basketball here.

No, we were talking college basketball. Alll you want to do is poke fun at catholisism by the sounds of it.

Still waiting for CDAGRIZ's take on this. The information above is from Gonzaga's ATHLETICS web page. I didn't write it. Gonzaga's athletics department (or university administration) wrote it. All I'm asking is, do you think it's the "Jesuit tradition" of educating the "whole person" in "mind, body and spirit" that is responsible for GU's hoop success? Do you really believe a wholistic education for college athletes is distinguishably Jesuit? Keep ducking the questions if you must.

I can't believe you know Al Gore. What is he like?

Nobody was talking about Jesuits until George Allen came along. So if you want to set up a forum, for him to stroke it to, go right ahead.

BTW, we don't need our own. We already dominate this one.

Did you read my last response to you?

I guess you want to dodge the fact that you were wrong. that's fine.

I don't know if the Jesuit education is responsible for GU's hoops success. But I don't see anything in the copy/pasted text that claims it is responsible. So, there's one answer.

Do I really believe that such an education is distguishably Jesuit?
I guess I'd have to ask if by "distiguishable" you mean: Jesuit intitutions are the only ones that practice this, or if you mean that Jesuit intitutions are the only ones that are permitted to practice this. In the former case, I'd say I don't know. And for the sake of this argument, I don't have to know. In the latter case, I'd say absolutely not.

This really has nothing to do with your assertion that catholics claim to have invented such an education, but oh well.

When will GA learn? Don't mess with the bull, you'll get the horns.
 
I don't even know what a "Jesuit" is. I was just looking at the Gonzaga basketball website and found this all over their athletics web page:

Then, when I started asking questions about it, some people in here (namely Lou and CDAGRIZ) started getting all evasive and nervous. They don't want to talk about Gonzaga athletics any more if it involves Gonzaga's own publicity about its athletic program (like the above website).

Interesting!

I am getting very nervous. I have no idea how someone can just disregard every comment made in response to theirs. I guess some people just get used to being proved wrong and don't acknowledge it, they just move on to a different subject.
BTW, is Al running for President in 08? Wish him luck for me.

HAHA! I guess the joke's on me :loser:

Seriously, the cool thing is: You don't even have to know what a Jesuit is to be proved wrong on three separate assertions about them. Moreover, you can be totally oblivious to what you're talking bout and still evade the fact that you were wrong.

I'd love to talk GU athletics no matter what capacity the conversation is in; as evident by the fact that I replied to every one of your posts. Evasive would describe your attitude to admitting fault, not anything I did. So, I don't know where you got the notion that I don't want to talk GU athletics-probably the same place where you got your awesome sense of logic.

The correct phrase, Lou, is proven wrong. In any regard, I'm not aware of any assertion of mine that has been proven wrong in the context of Gonzaga University athletics. I just pulled information from their website and posted it. Seems like you have issues with Gonzaga University, not with me. If I'm wrong, and if you believe you have disproven an assertion I made, lay it out there, and I will respond. Thanks. (And I have no clue what your Al Gore comments relate to ... are we missing something?)

No, we are not missing something. You are missing something. Maybe read the prior posts before you respond. I find it works a lot better, especially when you are arguing with someone that is much quicker witted than yourself.

Wow? Either CDAGRIZ and Lou are: (a.) the same person, which would explain Lou's love of CDAGRIZ, or; (b.) they go to the same parochial school where the teacher doesn't know English (Hence, they don't know the difference between "proved" and "proven.").

CDAGRIZ, I would extend the same invitation to you that I did to Lou above, but because the two of your are obviously the same person, I would feel a little redundant in doing so.

Well George, when you are beat you might as well make up some stupid sh*t. Are you really that anal. I didn't know that I had to proof read my posts everytime, but you can bet from now on there will be no incorrect wording on my posts. Thanks for clearing that up. You should be an English teacher, I'll bet your students would really loathe, I mean, like you a lot
 
OK GA, For the third time: You said "Wow, I didn't know that catholics invented................." By doing so, you implied that somewhere in this text they claimed to have invented.....................

You then switched arguments after losing and said "is............distinguisably Jesuit?" To which I posed two possible scenarios: One in which my knowledge had no bearing on my position; and one in which your implication was again proved (haha) wrong. (that a non-Jesuit institution could not practice such an education). Just read the whole thread over again.

I proved you wrong. You didn't own up to it.
