SUMMARY:Can Science Explain Everything?
DESCRIPTION:Can science explain everything? Many people think so. Science\, and the technologies it has spawned\, has delivered so much to the world: clean water; more food; better healthcare; longer life. And we live in a time of rapid scientific progress that holds enormous promise for many of the problems we face as humankind. So much so\, in fact\, that many see no need or use for religion and belief systems that offer us answers to the mysteries of our universe. Science has explained it\, they assume. Religion is redundant. Oxford Maths Professor and Christian believer John Lennox offers a fresh way of thinking about science and Christianity that dispels the common misconceptions about both. He reveals that not only are they not opposed\, but they can and must mix to give us a fuller understanding of the universe and the meaning of our existence. \nProf. John Lennox\nProf John Lennox studied at the Royal School Armagh\, Northern Ireland and was Exhibitioner and Senior Scholar at Emmanuel College\, Cambridge University from which he took his MA\, MMath and PhD. He worked for many years in the Mathematics Institute at the University of Wales in Cardiff which awarded him a DSc for his research. He also holds an MA and DPhil from Oxford University (by incorporation) and an MA in Bioethics from the University of Surrey. He was a Senior Alexander Von Humboldt Fellow at the Universities of Würzburg and Freiburg in Germany. \nHe has lectured extensively in North America\, Eastern and Western Europe and Australasia on mathematics\, the philosophy of science and the intellectual defence of Christianity. He has written a number of books on the interface between science\, philosophy and theology. These include God’s Undertaker: Has Science Buried God? (2009)\, God and Stephen Hawking\, a response to The Grand Design (2011)\, Gunning for God\, on the new atheism (2011)\, and Seven Days that Divide the World\, on the first chapters of Genesis (2011). He has also written a number of books exploring biblical themes\, including Against the Flow (2015)\, on the topic of Daniel\, Determined to Believe? (2017)\, on the the subject of free will and God’s sovereignty\, Joseph (2019)\, on the story in Genesis\, and the ‘Key Bible Concepts’ series\, co–written with David Gooding (in the 1990s). His most recent titles are Have no Fear (2018)\, on evangelism today\, Can Science Explain Everything? (2019)\, on the relationship between science and Christianity\, and the six–part ‘Quest for Reality and Significance’ series co–written by David Gooding (2018–9). Furthermore\, in addition to over seventy published mathematical papers\, he is the co–author of two research level texts in algebra in the Oxford Mathematical Monographs series.

SUMMARY:Promoting a Responsible and Free Conscience in Today’s Society
DESCRIPTION:The right to conscientious objection seems increasingly to conflict with rights to certain services and medical procedures. Should society curtail conscience’s rights? Or should society nurture the skill of making responsible moral judgments\, which involves granting people space in which to learn to exercise it well? The sponsoring institutions are very grateful to Baroness Nuala O’Loan for agreeing to address such important issues. Her lecture will launch research into how we can think beyond ‘a clash of rights’\, and see respect for conscience as benefiting society and strengthening democracy. \nThe Baroness’ widely recognised work in areas such as human rights and conflict resolution.

SUMMARY:Annual Aquinas Colloquium: “Aquinas and the Development of Law”
DESCRIPTION:AQUINAS INSTITUTE ANNUAL COLLOQUIUM\n“Development” conveys notions of improving\, refining\, advancing – change for the better. While Aquinas did not think that eternal wisdom could improve\, he did hold – perhaps surprisingly – that natural and divine law could develop in some fashion. The Colloquium will explore the development of human\, natural\, and divine law as well as the contrast with eternal law. The speakers will discuss how theories of law treat changes in law itself or in the understanding of law. \nProf Jay Budziszewski (University of Texas)\nOf Course Human Law Develops. Can Natural and Divine Law Develop? \nProf Ryan Meade (Loyola University\, Chicago)\nWhen Should or Shouldn’t Human Law Change? Ethics and Assessing Legal Code \nDr Jonathan Price (University of Oxford)\nHugo Grotius and the Shrinking of the Natural Law Doctrine \nRev Dr Richard Conrad OP (Aquinas Institute)\nThe Revision of Civil Law: The Torah Exemplifies Aquinas’ Principles \n  \nBuffet lunch provided with donations of £10 requested at door (£5 students/unwaged)

SUMMARY:Aquinas Seminar Series: Prof Peter Hampson on ‘Appreciating the fine and discerning the good: toward a theology of affordance’
DESCRIPTION:People are situated as well as related and embodied creatures; we inhabit physical\, social\, moral and spiritual worlds each with their action potentials or affordances. Virtue acquisition is thus partly an habitual and social process entailing increasing sensitivity to the moral affordances of situations\, the fineness and fittingness of accompanying actions\, and their outcomes. It is aided by learning to see the world through the eyes of already virtuous agents.  But is there anything (psychologically speaking) beyond such moral competence?  What of those who appear to have extraordinarily high levels of moral expertise and spiritual sensitivity?  What is involved in such impressive levels of moral mastery\, imagination\, and creativity? Building on John Lederach’s experientially based reflections on peace-making\, I suggest that some already virtuous persons are sufficiently gifted to open themselves more fully to the potentialities of the world\, through a process of attentive\, passive receptivity.  They become able to discern and creatively imagine the good in situations where it is currently hidden from others. In a further move\, I briefly outline some possible theological connections with this psychological model\, with reference to Cusa’s De Possest\, to illustrate the deeper appreciation of the invisible Good (the True and Beautiful) in all that is\, seen and unseen. \nProfessor Peter Hampson\, Research Fellow\, Blackfriars Hall\, Oxford\, and Emeritus Professor of Psychology\, UWE Bristol

SUMMARY:Annual Aquinas Lecture\, Prof William Desmond
DESCRIPTION:Communities of the Metaxu: Interdependence beyond Dependence and Independence\nIn modernity we tend to identify the meaning of freedom with the idea of autonomy. By comparison with autonomy\, we find problematic the idea of heteronomy\, or variations of it. Autonomy stresses the nomos of to auto\, the law of the self/same; heteronomy stresses the nomos of to heteron\, the law of the other.   These notions are correlative to an understanding of independence and dependence\, the first often given primacy\, the second often made subordinate.  I want to argue that a satisfactory concept of interdependence is difficult to comprehended if our thinking is constrained by these oppositions. This is especially evident if we stress the “between\,” the “inter” of interdependence. I want to explore the matter in terms of what I call a metaxological understanding of community. A metaxological understanding stresses a logos of the metaxu (between)\, stresses our need to word the between. This metaxological understanding of community will illuminate ways of “being together” that point towards interdependence as beyond the dyadic contrast of dependency and independence.  I want to stress a more original porosity of being prior to autonomy and beyond autonomy\, a patience of being before a striving to be. Forget the porosity and the patience and we miss how our freedom is an endowed freedom\, a freedom received as itself from what is other to itself. A richer understanding of interdependence is possible if we bear these considerations in mind.  \nWilliam Desmond   \nDavid Cook Chair in Philosophy\, Villanova University\, Thomas A.F.

SUMMARY:Aquinas Seminar Series: Prof Ed Feser on Cooperation with Sins against Prudence and Chastity
DESCRIPTION:In modern times there is a tendency to pit morality against intelligence\, either in a voluntarist way that makes morality primarily a matter of the will or in a sentimentalist way that makes it primarily a matter of feeling.  From the Thomist point of view\, this is a mistake.  Morality is an essentially cognitive enterprise\, and hinges on the virtue of prudence – the habit of knowing the right thing to do and the right way of doing it.  One cooperates with sins against prudence when one either encourages voluntarist and sentimentalist tendencies\, or fails to discourage them when one has a special obligation to do so.  In this paper I set out Aquinas’s account of the nature of prudence and of the vices opposed to it.  It turns out that there is a special connection between these vices and sins against chastity. Aquinas’s account can in turn be developed into an account of the various ways one might fall into cooperating with sins against prudence.  And it turns out that there is also a special connection between such cooperation and cooperation with sins against chastity.  The key to understanding the special connection between sins against prudence and sins against chastity lies in Aquinas’s account of the “blindness of mind” that is among what he calls the “daughters of lust.”
