SUMMARY:The A.R.T. of Reproduction: Re-conceiving the Human Person
DESCRIPTION:April 5\, 2014 \n \nThe decision to award the 2010 Nobel Prize to Robert Edwards\, pioneer of in vitro fertilization\, is a sign that Western society has made its peace with IVF\, now estimated to be responsible for the birth of some 4 million children worldwide\, and to artificial reproductive technologies more generally. But saying ‘yes’ to ARTs has meant saying ‘yes’ to much else besides. ARTs are the sine qua non for embryonic stem cell research\, germline manipulation\, and a host of other biotechnical possibilities (and bioethical dilemmas) that were heretofore only the stuff of science fiction. ARTs are the condition of possibility for the invention of same sex marriage\, whose advocates insist on severing marriage from its intrinsic connection to the sexually differentiated body and to procreation while simultaneously demanding the ‘right’ of gay couples to ‘have children’ by artificial means\, often with public assistance. Conversely the normalization of same-sex marriage only promises to increase exponentially the frequency of recourse to ARTs. And the decoupling of sex and procreation through ARTs has given rise to a surrogacy industry—so called baby-farming—that often leads to a legal quagmire domestically and to the exploitation and virtual servitude of poor women abroad. \nAll of this has raised profound questions—and for those conceived through ARTs profoundly existential questions—about the relation between human identity and human origins\, about the meaning of marriage\, the human body\, motherhood\, fatherhood\, and kinship. Which is to say that in saying ‘yes’ to ARTs\, our culture\, perhaps unwittingly\, has accepted much more than a mere technique for remedying infertility. It has accepted in practice an understanding of the human being—a fundamental anthropology—without precedent in human history and fundamentally at odds with its own cultural patrimony. It is the purpose of this symposium to explore the many facets of the ‘anthropological challenge’ posed now and in the future by the proliferation of ARTs. \nThe Symposium is directed to those concerned with the intersection of ethics\, technology\, and medicine\, including physicians\, theologians\, philosophers\, and professionals in the fields of law\, politics\, public policy\, and pastoral care. Unlike a conventional conference\, the Symposium will be conducted in the manner of a dialogue among authoritative voices who can illuminate the problem of ARTs from a variety of perspectives—medicine\, philosophy of science\, law\, theological anthropology\, genetics\, and personal experience. \n\n\n\nSaturday\, April 5\n\n\n\n\n8:30 a.m.\nContinental Breakfast Available\n\n\n9:00\nThe Gift of Life and Life-Giving Suffering: Understanding Fertility and the Drama of Infertility\nJohn Bruchalski\nAlana Newman\nModerator: Nicholas Healy\n\n\n10:30\nBreak\n\n\n11:00\nModern Women-Modern Mothers: Resetting the Biological Clock \nMollie Hemingway\nMargaret Harper McCarthy\nModerator: Mary Hasson\n\n\n12:30 p.m.\nLunch\n\n\n2:00\nRights without Limits: Reproduction in an Age of Same-Sex “Marriage” \nMelissa Moschella\nDavid Crawford\nModerator: Jeanne Schindler\n\n\n3:30\nBreak\n\n\n4:00\nRe-designing Conception: When Art Replaces Nature \nStephan Kampowski\nMichael Hanby\n\n\n\n

SUMMARY:The Problem of Persons: Public Bioethics and Contending Moral Anthropologies
DESCRIPTION:September 15\, 2014\nKeane Auditorium\, McGivney Hall \n \nThe Center for Cultural and Pastoral Research is please to host a conversation with Prof. Carter Snead on the topic “The Problem of Persons: Public Bioethics and Contending Moral Anthropologies\,” on Monday\, September 15\, at 7:00 p.m. \nIn this lecture\, Prof. Snead will argue that the richest way to understand contemporary disputes in public bioethics is through the lens of moral anthropology. At bottom\, such disagreements—over abortion\, embryo-destructive research\, assisted reproductive technologies\, the definition of death\, end of life decision-making\, and research involving human subjects—are are conflicts regarding the nature and identity of human persons. The anthropological premises underlying the most prominent viewpoints in this domain will be illuminated and examined. \nProf. Snead\, the William P. and Hazel B. White Director of the Center for Ethics and Culture and Professor of Law at the University of Notre Dame\, is an internationally recognized expert in Public Bioethics—the governance of science\, medicine\, and biotechnology in the name of ethical goods. His research explores issues relating to neuroethics\, enhancement\, stem cell research\, abortion\, and end-of-life decision-making. Prior to joining the law faculty at Notre Dame\, Professor Snead served as General Counsel to The President’s Council on Bioethics (Chaired by Dr. Leon R. Kass)\, where he was the primary drafter of the 2004 report\, “Reproduction and Responsibility: The Regulation of New Biotechnologies.” He has testified in the U.S. House of Representatives on regulatory questions concerning RU-486 (the abortion pill). In 2014\, he testified in the Texas state legislature on the constitutionality of a proposed fetal pain bill. Professor Snead led the U.S. government delegation to UNESCO and served as its chief negotiator for the Universal Declaration on Bioethics and Human Rights (adopted in October 2005). He served (with President’s Council on Bioethics Chairman\, Dr. Edmund Pellegrino) as the U.S. government’s Permanent Observer to the Council of Europe’s Steering Committee on Bioethics (CDBI)\, where he assisted in its efforts to elaborate international instruments and standards for the ethical governance of science and medicine. In 2008\, he was appointed by the Director-General of UNESCO to a four-year term on the International Bioethics Committee (IBC)\, a 36-member body of independent experts that advises member states on bioethics\, law\, and public policy. The IBC is the only bioethics commission in the world with a global mandate. Professor Snead received his J.D.\, magna cum laude\, from Georgetown University and his B.A. from St. John’s College. \nTo watch Professor Snead’s presentation\, please click here.

SUMMARY:Lumen Gentium: The Church as Sacrament of Trinitarian Communion
DESCRIPTION:On November 14-15\, 2014\, the Washington Session of the John Paul II Institute for Studies on Marriage and Family will sponsor a conference commemorating the fiftieth anniversary of the Second Vatican Council’s Dogmatic Constitution on the Church\, Lumen Gentium. Entitled “Lumen Gentium: The Church as Sign and Sacrament of Trinitarian Communion\,” the conference is part of an ongoing series devoted to the major texts of Vatican II. \nIn his Apostolic Letter Porta Fidei\, Pope Benedict XVI recalled the words of his predecessor: “the texts bequeathed by the Council Fathers . . . have lost nothing of their value or brilliance. They need to be read correctly\, to be widely known and taken to heart as important and normative texts of the Magisterium\, within the Church’s Tradition . . . I feel more than ever in duty bound to point to the Council as the great grace bestowed on the Church in the twentieth century: there we find a sure compass by which to take our bearings in the century now beginning.” Guided by these words and bearing in mind Benedict XVI’s principle of a hermeneutics of reform\, the aim of the conference is to explore anew Lumen Gentium‘s teaching on the inner nature and universal mission of the Church.  The Fathers of the Second Vatican Council conceived the Church as a sign and sacrament of communion (koinonίa) grounded in the Trinitarian mystery of God and concretized in eucharistic fellowship. The connection between the Church and the Eucharist is the permanent source of the ecumenical and missionary dynamism of the Church who “is sent to the world to announce and witness\, to make present and spread the mystery of communion which is essential to her: to gather together all people and all things into Christ; so as to be for all an ‘inseparable sacrament of unity’” (Communionis Notio\, 4). \nThe conference will explore various dimensions of Lumen Gentium—the Christological and pneumatological foundations of the Church\, the nature of Episcopal office\, holiness and the vocation of the laity\, the eschatological nature of the Church\, and the relationship between the Church and the Virgin Mary—within the context of the theological vision of the Council as a whole. \n  \n\n\n\n\nFriday\, November 14\n\n\n\n\n6:00 p.m.\nRegistration table opens\n\n\n6:30\nKeynote Address \nThe Church: People of God\, Body of Christ\, Spouse\, and Mother \nSpeaker: Rev.

SUMMARY:Called to Love: Theology of the Body Continuing Education Series
DESCRIPTION:January 14\, 2015 — February 4\, 2015 (6:30pm – 8:30pm) \nThe Pontifical John Paul II Institute for Studies on Marriage and Family announces the Spring 2015 Continuing Education course\, “Called to Love: Theology of the Body.” \nThis course studies John Paul II’s Man and Woman He Created Them: A Theology of the Body —his “Wednesday catecheses”—through a reading of the text and a discussion of his scriptural\, theological\, and philosophical methodology. It shows how the dual unity of man and woman and their interpersonal communion\, even in the body\, image divine trinitarian life. Special emphasis will be made on the foundations of the Theology of the Body in the Christian tradition. The course will draw also on other\nworks by John Paul II that deal with marriage and the family\, such as The Jeweler’s\nShop\, Love and Responsibility\, and the Roman Triptych. \nThe course meets on Wednesday evenings\, 6:30-8:30 p.m. beginning January 14\, and can be taken toward renewal requirements for VCEA licensure. Numerous high schools in the Archdiocese of Washington also accept the course for CEU credits.  The registration form is available for download at the right. \nFor more information\, email information@johnpaulii.edu or call 202.526.3799. The class fee is $150.

SUMMARY:Book Discussion: No God\, No Science? Theology\, Cosmology\, Biology
DESCRIPTION:On Thursday\, February 5\, at 4 p.m.\, philosopher Phillip Sloan of the University of Notre Dame and Ken Myers of the Mars Hill Audio Journal will join Michael Hanby to discuss and debate his latest book: No God\, No Science? Theology\, Cosmology\, Biology. \nThe discussion will be followed by a reception in McGivney Hall. \n \nFrom the publisher: \nAre creation and evolution mutually exclusive terms? Or is there instead a deep relationship between science\, metaphysics\, and theology that can help shed light into mankind’s quest for the ultimate truth? No God\, No Science?: Theology\, Cosmology\, Biology presents a comprehensive work of philosophical theology whose overarching aim is to retrieve the Christian doctrine of creation ex nihilo from the distortions imposed upon it by positivist science and the Darwinian tradition of evolutionary biology. \nMichael Hanby cogently argues that the Christian doctrine of creation is actually essential to the intelligibility of the world and that the universe itself is a fundamentally metaphysical and theological concept. Metaphysics and theology\, he reasons\, are not options in the realm of science\, and the intractable problems of Darwinian biology are actually the result of its faulty metaphysical and theological foundations. Putting forth a new understanding of the relationship between theology and science and an original and thought-provoking critical reassessment of Darwinian biology\, No God\, No Science? changes the terms of the debate between Darwinism and theology and offers startling new insights into the potential for science and religion to coexist and flourish in the modern world. \nThe book is available for purchase from Wiley.

SUMMARY:McGivney Lectures: The Four Republics
DESCRIPTION:February 23\, 2015 — February 26\, 2015 (7:00 p.m. – 8:30 p.m.) \nDuring the week of February 23\, Prof. Giorgio Buccellati\, Professor Emeritus of Near Eastern Languages and Cultures at the University of California\, Los Angeles\, will present the 2015 McGivney Lectures\, “The Four Republics.” Starting from his fifty years’ expertise as a historian and field archaeologist of Ancient Near Eastern civilizations\, his series of three lectures will discuss the origins and development of human community: \nOver time\, hominin and human communal living has been marked by very few structural transformations that were truly epochal in nature. They were conditioned by factors that pertain to the way in which perception and reason interact with the world around us\, and the way in which the group mediates the relationship of the individual to the absolute. \nLong before Plato’s classical definition\, we can identify three time-bound “republics\,” i.e.\, three very distinct\, though not mutually exclusive\, modes of articulating the bond of solidarity that holds the group together – three republics that have conditioned human history ever since. And beyond time\, there lurks a fourth republic\, barely documentable historically\, yet arguably central to their very nature as the final target of a shared trajectory. \n\nFebruary 23: “Two-and-a-Half-Million Years before Solon”\nFebruary 25: “The Invention of Society”\nFebruary 26: “The Impact of Wholeness and the Outer Limits of Freedom”\n\nThe lectures will take place each evening at 7:00 p.m. in Keane Auditorium\, McGivney Hall. \nAdmission to the lectures is free\, but registration is required.

SUMMARY:Healing or Human Enhancement? The Future of Medicine
DESCRIPTION:The Center for Cultural and Pastoral Research is pleased to announce a symposium on “Healing or Human Enhancement? The Future of Medicine” at the Pontifical John Paul II Institute for Studies on Marriage and Family at The Catholic University of America on April 17-18\, 2015. \nMedicine\, by almost all accounts\, faces an uncertain future. There are the skyrocketing costs and the regulatory concerns that have plagued medicine for years. There are the many changes brought about by the Affordable Care Act. Yet more fundamentally\, rapid technological and biomedical advances\, though they hold out great diagnostic and therapeutic promise\, have put the very nature and end of medicine in question. Is the goal of medicine the traditional end of human healing\, or is it the new ‘posthuman’ goal of human enhancement? Is this distinction sustainable? \nThis symposium will discuss the profound questions surrounding the new possibilities not only for healing but also for so-called human “enhancement” by exploring the effect these have on our expectation of health and the practice of contemporary medicine. \nPhysicians attending the symposium may claim Continuing Medical Education credits.** \nRegistration\n\nGeneral\nClergy\, Religious\, and Students\nAlumni\nInstitute Students\n\nAccommodations\nRooms are available at a discounted rate for conference participants at the following hotels: \n\nCourtyard Marriott  (Deadline for reservation: March 20th)\nSilver Spring Hilton Doubletree (Deadline for reservation: March 27th)\n\nSchedule\n\n\n\nFriday\, April 17\n\n\n\n6:30 p.m.\nRegistration Table Opens\n\n\n7:00\nThe Übermensch Ambition: Treatment or Enhancement? \nSpeakers: Chris Hook\, M.D. \nJohn Lane\, M.D. \nModerator: Michael Hanby\, Ph.D.\n\n\nSaturday\, April 18\n\n\n\n8:30 a.m.\nContinental Breakfast Available\n\n\n9:00\nWhom Do You Trust with Your Life?

SUMMARY:The Church in the Modern World: Fifty Years Later
DESCRIPTION:On November 13-14\, 2015\, the Washington Session of the John Paul II Institute for Studies on Marriage and Family will sponsor a conference entitled “The Church in the Modern World: Fifty Years Later” for the fiftieth anniversary of the Second Vatican Council’s document Gaudium et spes. The conference concludes the Institute’s series of events devoted to the major texts of Vatican II. \nGaudium et spes provides the Church’s most comprehensive official statement regarding her relation to the world. The document carries out its reflection above all in terms of a distinctive anthropology conceived in inner openness to the revelation of God in Jesus Christ. Indeed\, the anthropology of Gaudium et spes is best understood against the background of Chalcedonian Christology\, with its affirmation that\, in Jesus Christ\, God truly assumes (assumpta) but does not absorb (preempta) human nature. As Joseph Ratzinger puts it: “The human nature of all men is one; Christ’s taking to himself the one human nature of man is an event which affects every human being; consequently human nature in every human being is henceforward Christologically characterized” (Vorgrimler\, ed.\, Commentary on the Documents of Vatican II\, 160). \nThe question of the Church’s relation to the world\, in this light\, takes on a striking new feature. Her task of entering the modern world\, of taking on the “joy and hope\, the grief and anguish of the men and women of our time” and of bearing the “message of salvation intended for all\,” consists in a genuine assumption of the world into and through Christ’s Eucharistic love\, an assumption that does not absorb but on the contrary presupposes even as it fulfills the world’s own natural-creaturely integrity (GS 1). \nThe purpose of the conference is to ponder several main issues that arise regarding the Church-world relation so understood\, treating first those problems that concern “the dignity of the human person and his individual and social role in the universe” (GS 46); and second\, in light of these anthropological considerations\, those “urgent problems deeply affecting the human race” (46). Chief among the latter is that identified first by Gaudium et spes: marriage and family (GS 47-52). \nSchedule\n\n\n\nFriday\, November 13\n\n\n6:30 p.m.\nCheck-in table opens\n\n\n7:00\nKeynote Address \nAmerica and the End of Civilization: God and the (Dis)Enchantment of Culture \nSpeaker: David L. Schindler\n\n\n8:30\nReception\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSaturday\, November 14\n\n\n8:30 a.m.\nContinental breakfast available\n\n\n9:00-10:30\nThe Anthropology of Gift \nSpeakers: Adrian Walker and Rev.
