Join us for a special seminar on:
"Bare Life, the Resurrection of the Body and Evangelium Vitae (1995) with Gavin Flood"
Although with different methods and evidentiary resources, traditional Catholic doctrine and the modern sciences of genetics and medicine both teach the special dignity and fragility of human life and the inherent care and justice due each human person. Both traditions of learning, however, have failed to stem the ever darkening distemper of our secularist age that routinely delimits personhood while wildly raging against life itself. How humanity entrapped ourselves in this sad, secular cul-de-sac and how we might begin to consider the philosophical, theological and political resources needed to find our way out is precisely what this seminar discussion aims to ask.
Interested participants are asked to register to ensure a seat and to read two common texts. EVERYONE is invited to attend—including “just listeners.”
