SUMMARY:Blackfriars Aquinas Group
DESCRIPTION:The Aquinas Group offers young adults an opportunity to enrich their spiritual and intellectual lives by studying the writings of St Thomas Aquinas. \nWe meet on Mondays in term at 7pm. We begin with a light meal\, then explore a topic guided by one of the friars\, before finishing by praying Compline (night prayer) together in the priory church. This term we will be looking at St Thomas’ philosophical and theological anthropology\, namely his understanding of the human person. We will look at questions such as the relation between body and soul\, how our thinking and willing shape who we are\, and the nature of moral action. We will also consider more theological themes such as grace\, the theological virtues (faith\, hope\, and charity)\, and what happens to the soul after we die.

SUMMARY:Thomistic Institute - Prof John Haldane - Immaterial Mind
DESCRIPTION:On Monday 19th February\, the Thomistic Institute will be hosting Professor John Haldane to speak on: \nThe Immaterial Mind and the Immortal Soul \nThe lecture will be in the aula at 7.30pm\, and will be followed by refreshments. All are welcome! \nAbstract: Beginning in the late 1950s\, and with a few exceptions\, anglophone philosophers began to adopt one of two views about the nature of mind. Materialism (the mind is the brain) or Behaviourism (talk of mind is to be interpreted in terms of bodily behaviour). These views were qualified\, refined\, revised but in general the prevailing orthodoxies reject the idea of immateriality and certainly that of an immortal soul. Even so the trajectory of philosophical thinking has remained quite divergent. This lecture will review some of these issues and turn to consideration of two lines of thought that claim to be different from those mentioned\, both linked to the thought of Wittgenstein. That of Strawson\, that Persons area special kind of subject\, and that (or those) of Anscombe and Wittgenstein. The special interest of the latter in this context is that they both held to the Christian belief in a future life. This also raises the questions how are their views related to that of Aquinas\, and how should his view be regarded. These various considerations will lead in turn to the broader question is some form of dualism tenable?
