Romans

So Emily and I are going through the book of Romans together. I warned her that this might be a dangerous idea since so many crazy things happen when people read Romans: Augustine of Hippo becomes a Christian; Martin Luther starts a Reformation; Karl Barth writes influential theology books. And I think that people need to read Romans a bit more often, as evidenced by a conversation today with my boss.

ME: Well, Jesus was the second Adam.
BOSS: You said that Jesus was the second Adam? I'm not sure what I think about that. I think I've heard that before, though.
ME: Yeah, Paul wrote it. It's from Romans.

So, here's a question for you faithful readers (all five of you): do you want my notes on Romans to be put here on the blog or do you not care? Would it just be taking up valuable cyberspace?
