Ep. 022 - Fr. Owen Carroll: Is Sacred Doctrine a Science?

from Magnus Podcast: Conversations from the Catacombs of Liberal Education · host Albertus Magnus Institute, Inc.

We continue our series with Fr. Owen Carroll as we sound the depths of the first question of the Summa Theologiae of St. Thomas Aquinas. Is Sacred Doctrine a science? If so, a science of what? We find in St. Thomas a vision of 'sacra doctrina' as the science of God and the Blessed—a deeply societal, intensely personal, and supremely joyous way of knowing. Follow along with this excellent translation of the text: https://www3.nd.edu/~afreddos/summa-translation/Part%201/st1-ques01.pdf Join the Magnus Fellowship today at MagnusInstitute.org
