About Me
- Jim Gustafson
- In case you are the kind of person who likes to have the background of a writer to help judge whether his or her opinion is an informed or educated opinion, let me present my "credentials." I graduated from Roxbury Latin School (Boston), Wheaton College, Fuller Seminary, and crowned my formal education with a PhD in philosophy from Boston University. I have been teaching philosophy at Northern Essex Community College for over 30 years and I teach as a volunteer in Kenya and India. I have published The Quest for Truth, an Introduction to Philosophy, now in its 6th edition. Lover of the outdoors, I have hiked and camped all over New England with friends and family. Like to fish, too - mostly catch and release style. My chain saw can be heard in our family forest in Vermont where I make up firewood to warm us when the snow is howling. My wife, Eleanor Gustafson, is a published novelist. Our greatest production however is our three children, all very successful adults with super spouses, who who have given us perhaps the greatest earthly joy of all - eight delightful grandchildren. Talk about blessings In 2012 I wrote "Wheat & Weeds: a History of West Cong'l Church."

These people live in a snake handlers' village out in the countryside. They are "untouchables" who are shunned by higher caste people, according to the principles of Hinduism..
