SUMMARY:Pope Benedict's Jesus of Nazareth Non-Credit Course
DESCRIPTION:Tuesdays\, April 7-May 19\nGavin House\, 1220 East 58th Street\n6:00pm: Dinner\n6:30pm: Presentation \nPaul Mankowski\, S.J. (Lumen Christi Institute Scholar-in-Residence) \nREGISTER HERE \nOpen to current university students and recent graduates. Others interested in attending please contactinfo@lumenchristi.org. \n“This book is solely an expression of my personal search ‘for the face of the Lord’.”  Pope Benedict XVI’s Jesus of Nazareth is the product of a lifetime’s prayerful contemplation of scripture by an eminent theologian\, for whom the person of Jesus is the key to understanding both the sacred text and the human person:  “Jesus has brought God and with God the truth about our origin and destiny: faith\, hope\, and love.”  The course will provide background for recognizing the several tributaries of Christian theology and scholarship that Benedict brings together in this work\, and will examine in detail the chief moments in the life of Jesus on which he throws new light.  No prior familiarity with the work of Josef Ratzinger is presumed.

SUMMARY:Science and Religion: The Myth of Conflict
DESCRIPTION:In many ways\, the supposed conflict between science and religion is really a conflict between “scientific materialism” and religion. The lecture will review the story of the relation between Christianity and science\, discuss several discoveries of the twentieth century (primarily in physics)\, and argue that these are more consonant with the traditional Judeo-Christian view of the cosmos and of human beings than with scientific materialism.

SUMMARY:Is the Human Mind Reducible to Physics?
DESCRIPTION:a luncheon discussion with\nStephen M. Barr (University of Delaware) \nREGISTER HERE \nThis event is open to University of Chicago students. Lunch will be served. Others interested in attending\, please contactinfo@lumenchrisit.org. \nMaterialism or “physicalism” holds that all things\, including human beings\, are completely explicable in physical terms. While ancient and medieval thinkers expressed this view\, it gained a new power with the success of Newtonian physics\, whose laws were universal and deterministic\, giving rise to the belief that the entire physical universe is a closed system of cause and effect. Does this reduction of human beings to purely physical factors eliminate the possibility of free will? Is an understanding of the human mind as immaterial made impossible by the discoveries of the natural sciences? In this discussion\, Prof. Stephen Barr will argue that there is more to the human mind than physicalism can explain\, and that reason and science\, including recent discoveries in quantum mechanics\, imply that the human mind is immaterial. \nParticipants are encouraged to read THIS SHORT PAPER by Prof. Barr in preparation for the discussion.

SUMMARY:The Emergence of the Church's Culture of Biblical Interpretation and Theology: Rhetoric\, Philology\, and Gnosticism in the 2nd Century
DESCRIPTION:Lewis Ayres (University of Durham) \nTo understand the exegetical culture that nurtured and formed classical Patristic exegesis\, we must attend to some understudied features of the generation of Irenaeus and Clement of Alexandria. This generation\, in response to the exegetical cultures of ‘Gnostic’ thinkers\, developed the exegetical practice that became fundamental for all later Christian doctrinal disputes and for Christian speculative thought. Bringing this historical moment into clearer focus helps us think about the character of Christian thought today.

SUMMARY:CANCELLED: Dante's Theology of the Future: Inferno XIX and Paradiso XXXIII
DESCRIPTION:Due to the funeral of our friend\, supporter\, and Episcopal Moderator His Eminence Francis Cardinal George\, O.M.I. taking place on Thursday\, we will unfortunately have to cancel the event with Giuseppe Mazzotta on “Dante’s Theology of the Future.” \n\nIf you have already paid a registration fee\, you will be refunded in the coming days. We also plan to reschedule the event for sometime in the near future. \n\n\n…so did I strive with this new mystery:\n   I yearned to know how could our image fit\n   into that circle\, how could it conform;\nbut my own wings could not take me so high-\n   then a great flash of understanding struck\n   my mind\, and suddenly its wish was granted.\nAt this point power failed high fantasy\n   but\, like a wheel in perfect balance turning\,\n   I felt my will and my desire impelled\nby the Love that moves the sun and the other stars.\n– Dante\, The Divine Comedy: Paradise\, Canto XXXIII\, trans. Mark Musa

SUMMARY:The Family in the Changing Economy
DESCRIPTION:How does today’s economy impact the modern family? Several trends link mounting burdens on family life to economics: children are raised amid familial and fiscal instability\, young people are delaying or forgoing marriage\, the elderly are made increasingly vulnerable with a growing distance between generations and rising health care costs\, and the families of economic refugees are often divided across national borders or go legally unrecognized. Yet families form us as persons and are integral both to society and the economy. Situated between the 2014 and 2015 Synod Of Bishops On The Family\, this symposium will feature dialogue among Bishop Cantù\, economists\, and scholars on what insights Catholic social teaching and contemporary economics can offer into the current crisis of the family in the changing economy. \nOpening Remarks\nBlase J. Cupich\, Archbishop of Chicago \nKeynote Address\nOscar Cantú\, Bishop of Las Cruces\, NM; Chair\, USCCB Committee on International Justice and Peace \nPanelists\nPierre-André Chiappori\, Columbia University\nWilliam Evans\, University of Notre Dame\nChristine Firer Hinze\, Fordham University\nValerie Ramey\, University of California\, San Diego \nThis program is part of the Lumen Christi Institute’s Seventh Annual Conference in Economics and Catholic Social Thought\, a continuing exchange between research economists\, bishops\, and scholars. \n\nPresented by the Lumen Christi Institute for Catholic Thought. Co-sponsored by The International House Global Voices Program\, & The Seng Foundation Program for Market-Based Programs and Catholic Values at the Institute for Scholarship in the Liberal Arts\, and the Kellogg Institute for International Studies at the University of Notre Dame.
