So many theologians ask me about cognitive science models of decision making. Here is a very simple illustrative everyday example in selecting toppings on a pizza framed in cognitive explanation, computability, and tractability. cambridge.org/core/services/…

Swifts are uniquely adapted for life on the wing... Tiny legs mean they're clumsy on the ground but once airborne their long, curved wings & forked tails make them seriously impressive fliers. And they are FAST - capable of speeds up to 69 mph! #SwiftAwarenessWeek

One of my favourite doors from the last couple of weeks. (Cattedrale di Santa Maria del Fiore, Firenze) #NoContextDoors #Doors #adoorablethursday #DailyDoor #Florence NoContextDoors

This obscure church door in #Lari is rather humble compared to the glamour of the many famous doors we encountered in Tuscany, but it captures the romance of this little Tuscan town. #NoContextDoors #Doors #adoorablethursday #DailyDoor #Tuscany NoContextDoors

Charming 👀😀 #NoContextDoors #DailyDoor #adoorablethursday #doors

Perhaps the oldest #doors we saw in #Pisa was this bronze portal, one of the 1st produced in #Tuscany in the Middle Ages by #BonannoPisano, (est 1180, now in #MuseoDellOperaDelDuomo) The 24 reliefs show stories of the New Testament. #Adoorablethursday #DailyDoor NoContextDoors

Wonderful 👌 #NoContextDoors #DailyDoor #adoorablethursday #doors

Not to be outdone, in 1320 the #ArteDiCalimala commissioned these exquisite #doors for the #Firenze #Baptistery south portal. #AndreaPisano made wax models for bronze reliefs that were executed by #VenetianMasters, which he then gilded. #Adoorablethursday #DailyDoor NoContextDoors

The original is of course, safely preserved in Opera di Santa Maria del Fiore. The doors illustrate scenes from the life of the #JohnTheBaptist gilded bronze, some inspired by the 15 scenes from his life depicted on the interior mosaic ceiling or the 3 scenes by Giotto. x.com/OperaDuomoFi/s…
