Len Liptack – How History Teaches Humility

Rev. Liptack, (M.Div. Yale) of Blackhammer Lutheran Church discusses his discovery of Augustine’s reasoning for why people understand that the world is round and how, it appears to have been a convenient untruth for “historians” of the last century and a half to represent people of the past as believing that the world was flat.

As one listens to Pastor Liptack, one recalls the words of Thoreau, who wrote: “These same questions that disturb and puzzle and confound us have in their turn occurred to all the wise men; not one has been omitted; and each has answered them, according to his ability, by his words and his life.” Thoreau, “Reading” in Walden.
