This is golden tale of tribulation and tobacco, the noble weed and the queen of the sciences, academic and petitionary incense into your care. These words come to you not as retransmitted or retyped. Instead, they come to you just as they originally were written, then photocopied, PDF'd, and put together in a published work. For some of you, this work will be a step back to when you were in seminary during those dark days of the '70s to find a light heart and quick wit of a student in the midst of a cloud of confusion. For some of you, like me, it will give you a glimpse into a time past and a pastime nearly gone. These words come from Arthur the seminarian when he was but a freshly lit seminarian with the robust and glittering bowl that will draw you into the tastefulness that is, "Toward A Theology of Pipesmoking."
