However, tomorrow I'm slightly changing tack. I'm going to begin sharing a series on the history of philosophy. It is from a secular source, but in my opinion is decently even-handed, except for some questionable views on moral theology which should be kept in mind as ethical questions are addressed.
For a completely Catholic overview of the history of philosophy, I highly recommend Fr Frederick Copleston, SJ's 11-volume series titled The History of Philosophy (1946-1975). He discusses everything from Greece and Rome From the Pre-Socratics to Plotinus (volume 1) to Logical Positivism and Existentialism (volume 11).

Comments are subject to deletion if they are not germane. I have no problem with a bit of colourful language, but blasphemy or depraved profanity will not be allowed. Attacks on the Catholic Faith will not be tolerated. Comments will be deleted that are republican (Yanks! Note the lower case 'r'!), attacks on the legitimacy of Pope Francis as the Vicar of Christ (I know he's a material heretic and a Protector of Perverts, and I definitely want him gone yesterday! However, he is Pope, and I pray for him every day.), the legitimacy of the House of Windsor or of the claims of the Elder Line of the House of France, or attacks on the legitimacy of any of the currently ruling Houses of Europe.
