SUMMARY:Book Discussion: The Catholicity of Reason
DESCRIPTION:April 8\, 2016 (4:00 p.m. – 6:00 p.m.)\nKeane Auditorium\, McGivney Hall \nOn Friday\, April 8\, at 4 p.m.\, philosopher William Desmond of the Institute of Philosophy at the Catholic University of Leuven and Fr. Anselm Ramelow\, O.P.\, of the Dominican School of Philosophy and Theology will join Dr. D.C. Schindler to discuss and debate his recent book\, The Catholicity of Reason. \nVideo footage from this event can be found below. \n \nFrom the Publisher\nAn original argument for the recovery of a robust notion of reason and truth in response to modern rationalism and postmodern skepticism \nThe Catholicity of Reason explains the “grandeur of reason\,” the recollection of which Benedict XVI has presented as one of the primary tasks in Christian engagement with the contemporary world. \nWhile postmodern thinkers–religious and secular alike–have generally sought to respond to the hubris of Western thought by humbling our presumptuous claims to knowledge\, D. C. Schindler shows in this book that only a robust confidence in reason can allow us to remain genuinely open both to God and to the deep mystery of things. Drawing from both contemporary and classical theologians and philosophers\, Schindler explores the basic philosophical questions concerning truth\, knowledge\, and being–and proposes a new model for thinking about the relationship between faith and reason. \nThe reflections brought together in this book bring forth a dramatic conception of human knowing that both strengthens our trust in reason and opens our mind in faith. \nReviews\nFrancesca Murphy\n— University of Notre Dame\n“Ressourcement and modern Augustinian philosophical theology have been called on their apparent ‘fideism’: Schindler’s response is a resounding philosophical ‘Come at me\, bro!’ The Catholicity of Reason is the most stimulating text in philosophy of religion to appear for many years. . . . It’s the ‘must read’ book of the year.” \nMontague Brown\n— St. Anselm College\n“D. C. Schindler celebrates and brilliantly defends the life that is reason\, a life threatened by reason’s claim to be autonomous and equally by reason’s claim to be limited. . . . Against the reduction of reason to its discursive operations characteristic of the Enlightenment\, Schindler insists on the infinitely rich activity of reason in pursuit of the trinity of the irreducibly distinct but always interrelated objects of reason — truth\, goodness\, and beauty. . . . The only thing more important than the catholicity of reason by which it strives to encompass all truth\, goodness\, and beauty is the Catholicity of reason — the great gift of divine revelation\, which never restricts reason nor distorts human nature but\, on the contrary\, makes reason ever more reasonable and the human person ever more human.” \nOliva Blanchette\n— Boston College\n“Schindler goes a long way toward restoring the metaphysical scope of reason. . . . Much of the discussion in this exploration of the catholicity of both reason and being takes place at the hinge where philosophy and theology join hands. . . . Anyone interested in all such questions of catholicity and analogy both in reason and in being will find much to take into consideration here.” \nCatholic Library World\n“Extremely well written and researched.” \nLiving Church\n“One of the most comprehensive\, intelligent\, disciplined\, and compelling discussions of the relation between faith and reason that we have had in a long while. . . . This may be the best book yet from this young and very prolific Catholic philosopher.” \n  \nThe book is available for purchase from Eerdmans.

DESCRIPTION:September 7\, 2016 — December 7\, 2016 \nThe Pontifical John Paul II Institute for Studies on Marriage and Family announces the Fall 2016 Continuing Education course\, “Theology of Marriage.” \nAt a time when living married love is increasingly more difficult and the meaning of marriage harder to see\, this course offers the possibility of looking again at the nature of marriage and human spousal love. Guided by the teaching of St. John Paul II\, the pope of the family\, the course presents the Church’s rich understanding of marriage as well as tackling some of the burning questions that we face today: indissolubility; the Eucharist and the sacrament of matrimony; the role of faith in marriage; fruitfulness and artificial reproductive technologies; and same-sex marriage. \nThe course meets on Wednesday evenings\, 6:30-8:30 p.m. beginning September 7\, 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.

SUMMARY:Evolving Conceptions of Liberty: Prospects for Law and Religious Freedom
DESCRIPTION:September 26\, 2016 (7:00pm – 9:30pm) \nJeff Shafer\, Senior Counsel at the Alliance Defending Freedom\, will present a lecture entitled “Evolving Conceptions of Liberty: Prospects for Law and Religious Freedom in the Obergefell Era” on Monday\, September 26\, at 7 p.m. in Keane Auditorium. \nThe lecture will be followed by a reception. \nMr. Shafer will discuss religious freedom in relation to recent Supreme Court rulings: \nThe Supreme Court’s 2015 decision in Obergefell v. Hodges purporting to redefine marriage for the nation illustrates the condition of contemporary law. As the Court in Obergefell did not pair its audacity with cogency\, the decision presents abundant grounds for critique. Yet the outcome was eminently predictable. Why? Because culturally attuned judicial innovating has now itself become a norm\, a functional certainty that has replaced the substantive certainty of stable law. \nThe common segregation of court decisions from enduring legal standards raises concerns for religious dissenters. If “liberty” gave us Obergefell\, how likely is “liberty” to give dissenters a shelter from Obergefell? The path leading to Obergefell presents an interesting story\, as does the challenge in finding a path away from it\, and from what it represents.

SUMMARY:Book Discussion: Biblical and Theological Foundations of the Family
DESCRIPTION:On Friday\, December 2\, at 4 p.m.\, theologians Fr. Gregory Tatum\, O.P.\, of the École Biblique & Archeologique Française de Jerusalem and Craig Bartholomew of Redeemer University will join Joseph Atkinson to discuss and debate his latest book: Biblical and Theological Foundations of the Family: The Domestic Church. \nThe discussion will be followed by a reception. \n \nBook Description:\nBiblical and Theological Foundations of the Family argues that the family has a constitutive nature and a specific theological purpose\, which God reveals in the church. Joseph Atkinson investigates the principles of the doctrine of Creation which inform the family “from the beginning”; the vital way the family functions as “carrier of the covenant” in the Old Testament; and the critical aspects of Hebraic anthropology\, especially corporate personality\, upon which the family is based. \nThis book provides a counter argument to the view of the human person developed in modern thought and which prevails today—the autonomous\, self-determining individual\, with no essential nature or social or ecclesial aspects. Atkinson discusses the constitutive corporate nature of the human person and how the covenantal family of the Old Testament finds its fulfillment in Jesus Christ. The author does so by investigating how baptism transforms the family and gives it an ecclesial identity\, making it a “domestic church”. He then examines the development of the family’s ecclesial nature in the church fathers\, and the providential re-appropriation of the family’s inner ecclesial identity in the teachings of the Second Vatican Council and in subsequent magisterial teachings. \nThis ground-breaking work establishes a solid biblical and theological foundation on which a theology of the family can be constructed. It thus fills a critical lack in the current literature on the family. The wide range of sources\, including Jewish\, Catholic\, Orthodox\, and Protestant\, give this work a genuine ecumenical dimension. Biblical and Theological Foundations of the Family will become indispensable for anyone wanting to engage in serious study of the structure and meaning of the family and its place in the salvific will of God. \nReviews:\n“This study… offers a bounty of scriptural and theological insights into the church’s ongoing reflection on the family.”\n—Michael A. Fahey\, Journal for the Study of Marriage and Spirituality \n“An important contribution to the topic of the family in Scripture\, especially in the biblical foundational analysis… Careful and balanced in its judgments.”\n—Rev. Jose Granados\, Vice President\, Pontifico Istituto Giovanii Paolo II\, Vatican City\, Rome \n  \nThe book can be purchased through CUA Press.

Antonio López to discuss and debate his latest book: Gift and the Unity of Being. \nThe discussion will be followed by a reception. \nBelow is video footage from the event. \n  \nFrom the Publisher:\nStarting from both our originary experience of being given to ourselves and Jesus Christ’s archetypal self-donation\, Gift and the Unity of Being elucidates the sense in which gift is the form of being’s unity\, while unity itself constitutes the permanence of the gift of being. In dialogue with ancient and modern philosophers and theologians\, Lopez offers a synthetic\, rather than systematic\, account of the unity proper to being\, the human person\, God\, and the relations among them. The book shows how contemplation of the triune God of Love through Jesus Christ in the Holy Spirit allows us to discover the eternal communion that being is and to which finite being is called. It also illustrates the sense in which God’s gratuitousness unexpectedly offers the human person the possibility to recognize and embrace his origin and destiny\, and thus he is given to see and taste in God’s light the ever-fruitful\, dramatic\, and mysterious positivity of being. \n  \nReviews:\n“In this wonderful book Antonio Lopez offers a profound metaphysical interpretation of the gift of existence that is at once rigorous\, systematic\, and systemically dialogical. Lopez engages all the contending views of the gift out there\, and especially those of Derrida\, Marion\, Milbank\, and Guissani\, [and] he offers his own alternative\, which is embedded in the tradition of Aquinas and his theological and philosophical precursors and heirs. . . . A true tour de force!”\n–Cyril O’Regan\, University of Notre Dame \n  \n“Gift and the Unity of Being ranks among one of the most impressive reflections on the nature of gift\, ranging from deep reflection on the nature of birth to the Trinitarian God as the agapeic giver of all that is. It importantly stresses the reciprocity of giving and receiving\, with due deference for the disproportion and asymmetry of the divine superiority. This book accomplishes this in both philosophical and theological registers\, drawing especially on the work of Luigi Giussani.”\n–William Desmond\, Villanova University \n  \n“I believed I was simply opening a brilliant\, but also a routine comment on Giussani’s thought. But what I discovered here was a masterpiece! This book is no more than one of the most complete expressions of the . . . paradigm of ‘gift’ in present Catholic thought\, embracing the neglected polarity of gift and to-be-given.”\n–Emmanuel Tourpe\, Institut d’Etudes Theologiques

SUMMARY:John Paul II and the Foundations of Catholic Social Teaching
DESCRIPTION:September 6\, 2017 — December 6\, 2017 (6:30pm – 8:30pm) \nThe Fall 2017 course in the Institute’s ongoing Continuing Education Series will be “John Paul II and the Foundations of Catholic Social Teaching: An Encounter with the Modern World.” \nThis course explores Catholic social doctrine that is grounded on an understanding of the human person and society in the light of the Gospel.

The class fee is $150. \nThis course can be taken toward renewal requirements for VCEA licensure. Numerous high schools in the Archdiocese of Washington accept the course for CEU credits.
