Conference Theme:
Modern science consistently presents us with new and surprising truths about the natural world, particularly about how new things come to be, whether stars and galaxies, plants and animals, or chemical and physical structures. In many ways this creativity and flux in nature might seem antithetical to the classical picture of nature that Aquinas inherited from Aristotle. The theme for the second annual Thomistic Institute symposium on modern science and Thomistic philosophy, “Novelty in Nature: Scientific and Philosophical Understanding of Flux and Change in the Natural World,” touches on this question. Expert scientists and philosophers will discuss whether Thomistic philosophy is compatible with our modern scientific view of nature and how the two might enrich one another. The symposium is primarily intended for graduate students in the sciences and the philosophy of science and will include introductory sessions on basic of Thomistic philosophy of nature in its own day and in the history of science.

Con el más cordial saludo, así como nuestro abrazo virtual, llegamos hasta usted los PP. Álvaro Sáenz Zúñiga y Miguel Picado Gatjens, con el ya tradicional comentario libre a las lecturas de la liturgia que la Iglesia Católica propone para el domingo. Como siempre, en lo musical, nos acompaña la canción "Tú" de Fray Nacho, destacado compositor español.  El comentario, transmitido muy temprano en la mañana por las emisoras Columbia y Fides, queda en esta página por si usted quiere escucharlo a otra hora, volver a escucharlo y, lo que le agradecemos siempre, compartirlo con sus amigos y conocidos.   Para ayudar a su meditación bíblica le proponemos algunas cuestiones relacionadas unos textos: ¿Descubre usted que Dios, que nos ama, que desea tenernos con él, de ninguna manera planea castigarnos sino, por el contrario, ofrecer un banquete para nosotros, así como retirar de nuestras vidas el velo de luto? ¿Percibe usted lo que tantas veces ha dicho el Papa Francisco, es decir, que hemos sido llamados para llenar la sala y nunca para escoger quien entra y quien no? ¿Ha logrado usted profundizar en esa responsabilidad que tenemos, la de acercar a las gentes a Dios y no poner tantos obstáculos? ¿Se da cuenta de que el que es excluido del banquete es el que no quiso aceptar la posibilidad de lucir armónico con la categoría de la fiesta, oportunidad que le daba el mismo rey? ¿Se da cuenta usted de que el vestido de fiesta nos lo proporciona Jesucristo muriendo y resucitando en la cruz, por lo que todo lo puedo en Cristo que me fortalece?

Luz en mi sendero, domingo 11 de octubre de 2020. XXVIII del Tiempo Ordinario.

Douglas Valentine explains the 1960s CIA Vietnam torture and extermination program known as "Phoenix" which later went on to be perfected and deployed in war zones around the world after 9/11 and which has come home to roost in the United States through the creation of a permanent surveillance and police state under the auspices of the Department of Homeland Security, Fusion Centers, NSA bulk data collection, and numerous other programs. He explains how both political parties are two sides of the same coin and how the pandemic has advanced the interests of the security state.
