My new printer is taking so long and making so many strange sounds to "initialize" that I wonder if it might be "the beast" (or R2D2) It gurgles, clunks, taps, clicks, hisses, and more. It even has a screen telling me what it is up to.
Old printers never did this. You plugged them in, and they printed. Mysteries and opacities abound unnecessarily in the world of technology.

About Me
- Douglas Groothuis, Ph.D.
- Nothing on this blog represents the position of Denver Seminary. I am a Christian, philosopher, teacher, writer, and preacher, who is Professor of Philosophy at Denver Seminary. My most recent of my twelve books is Philosophy in Seven Sentences. My magnum opus is Christian Apologetics: A Comprehensive Case for Biblical Faith (InterVarsity Press, 2011). I have published ten others, including Truth Decay and On Jesus. I direct the Christian Apologetics and Ethics MA program at Denver Seminary.

One man's mystery is another man's clear communique. You have to speak it's language!
