Aquinas at 800: Eschatology

With Fr James Dominic Rooney, OP, PhD, Assistant Professor of Philosophy at Hong Kong Baptist University; Catalina Vial de Amesti, STD, Associate Professor at the Pontifical University of the Holy Cross in Rome, Italy; and Jennifer Hart Weed, PhD, Associate Professor at the University of New Brunswick.


How has Thomas Aquinas shaped our thoughts on death, judgment, and the final destiny of our souls and of humankind? Contemplate Aquinas’ writings on the integration of different human dimensions in the vision of God in heaven, the necessity of embodied repentance, and how and whether we should include animals in the glorified universe.

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 Leo XIV as the Vicar of Christ, 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.
