Interesting! To chance some thread drift: Because of recent sad occurances, your post has started me thinking.----The word you've chosen, SEMINAL, infers that the actual nature of seminary life has always, even if unwittingly, fostered the transformation of those institutions into becoming SPERM BANKS--ie. semen-al. But that substance, when not spilled on the ground (to use the Biblical phrase) causes a high pressure buildup that can and has lead to the explosive situations as seen in recent church revelation(s) and scandals. (***meant to be humorous*** --Do not take seriously. Please!)
