nickname: "DOCTOR SUBTILIS." yeah, that's right. Uh huh. Here's da doctor. I'm a pretty mysterious figure, died young, and left only fragmentary essays. I.e. I'm the model all philosophers should emulate. I know my name got used against followers, but call me a dunce and I'll go medieval on yer ass. Being that I am medieval, this poses no real problem. I'm still trying to work out this deal about women in the priesthood btw. I'm pretty sure if it's dogma it came from Jesus. I'm also pretty sure that if the Church excluded women from the days of the early fathers, it didn't do it by its own authority; hence it must have come from Jesus. Besides, they weigh more than ducks. Look, my initials are "JD," what do want? If you didn't know, I'm the little stinker that invented the idea of immaculate conception. Hey, I was drunk at the time; don't blame me. Anyhow I'm off to wherever I go now. Wherever it is, it's got a certain "thisness," you know?
