Still got quite a few to go. These would help get me going again:
2d God includes student in scheme (4)
-l-n (possibly plan but don't understand why)
13d stumble on fib about pet (repeated twice) (10) t---------
19d final comment serves to keep it a philosophical issue (7)
and
24a Have 8 to tolerate (4) --a-
(answer to 8 is children)
