greek reading

I'm with Brian. 'Yes ' to Van Til and the Greeks, and JBJ's "Western Civ.". . And because I always look for the whole picture, you might, might consult Gary North on Classical education, the Greeks. He cites himself, and Rushdoony (Chapters 4 and 5): https://chalcedon.edu/resources/books/one-and-the-many-the-studies-in-the-philosophy-of-order-and-ultimacy
https://www.garynorth.com/public/14403.cfm He pulls no punches
Also, Rosenstock wanted to get away from Greece his whole life, but couldn't. He ended up saying that they were a companion, but NEVER a social order. They had the faults of all other social orders. His Dartmouth course is at www.erhfund.org.

You are doing a good work!

Love in King Jesus,
Chuck
PS: Re, Burke. I actually was one of the founders of the Libertarian Party of Iowa decades ago. That morphed into 'Twelve Word Platform'. That wasn't enough for one of the 12 small enthusiastic groups. ERH, 'Universal History 1954' and I've added Reformation confessions and slaveries.
