>The Virgin Mary is the Greatest Philosopher of All Time
Last night, I told Joy (my wife) that I realized for the first time that Mary is “greatest scholar” of all time. Her mind is more fully alive and knowing than Augustine, Bernard, Bonaventure, Thomas Aquinas, or John Duns Scotus. She is the blessed one – most happy and glorified in Heaven. She is also the most humble.
She is the greatest lover of wisdom (“philosopher”) because her divine Son is Wisdom Incarnate through her. I have consecrated my academic studies to to Christ through Mary.
ἡ δὲ Μαρία πάντα συνετήρει τὰ ῥήματα ταῦτα
συμβάλλουσα ἐν τῇ καρδίᾳ αὐτῆς. (Lk 2:19)
(“But Mary kept all these words, pondering them in her heart.”)
