Cultivating the Conversation at St. Thomas

If you're interested in the conversations taking place at Mirror of Justice, you'll want to spend some time in Minneapolis in the coming weeks.  The University of St. Thomas Law School is hosting two can't-miss conferences. 

The first, to be held March 11, echoes our ongoing discussions on the viability of a Seamless Garment Party.  Titled "Can the Seamless Garment Be Sewn?  The Future of Pro-Life Progressivism," participants include Jim Wallis, Congressman Jim Oberstar, Helen Alvare, Sidney Callahan, Susan Appelton, Ted Jelen, and MoJ's own Mark Sargent.

The second, to be held April 7-9, is titled "The Catholic Intellectual Tradition and the Good Society."  Panels will be devoted to topics such as "Sacrifice and the Common Good" and "Disagreement and Dissent in a Good Society."  Participants include John Finnis, James Gordley, John Coughlin, Paul Griffiths, Elizabeth Schiltz, the omnipresent Mark Sargent, and Christopher Wolfe, among many others.
