Perhaps Logos is an ideal place for lawyers to start.
The text for their logic and rhetoric studies is The
Art of Deception. How fitting for future lawyers and
religious crackpots!
I respond:
I am not familiar with The Art of Deception, nor am I
aware of any lawyers or religious crackpots that have
attended Logos.
I do recall being encouraged to think critically and
argue persuasively during logic and rhetoric classes
at Logos many years ago, and I know teachers, nurses,
coaches, engineers, accountants, foresters, artists,
pastors, carpenters, dieticians, musicians and small
business owners that once attended Logos.
News of a local school winning a statewide academic
(or at least semi-academic) contest should be cause
for celebration, not inspiration for insults.
Probably sounding like a broken record (but hopefully
in the interest of fairness),
