Almost forgot!

It's Wednesday just before five PM and that means blog time: extra credit edition!
So... my final thoughts on theory.
Well, I suppose I find it more useful than I did before. I certainly have a better understanding of it. However, I don't think I'm going to pursue it. As much as I hate to let 9/11 shape the world, I think I would have preferred theory dead anyway. I'm glad I took this class because it's the probably the hardest class I've ever had and yet I did well (pending my term paper and final).
It's interesting that theory is dead, and yet can still be taught. God is supposedly dead, but we still have religion. I think it's just a matter of whether or not something is popular or is without something that supposedly disproves it.
You can't really kill theory. Theories is based on ideals, really. You either agree with the ideas or not, but can you really disprove them? I'll go back to my religion analogy: you can't disprove God. He's supposedly a big invisible dude in the sky we never see or touch so he very well could be there. Actually, this isn't a great analogy. But hey, I typed it. And typing things takes up space and I need this extra credit.
I should have commented more.
And a certain English professor should have posted our actual identities on WebCT like she said she would.
But that's okay, because I'm not Max at all! I've just been using his picture and name to fool you all!
Alright, that's a lie, but wouldn't that be sort of cool? If I could do it all over, I'd do that. But like... with someone else's picture and name, because I actually am Max.
