In London last night, a non-Zoom unexpected meeting of 3 from @CommonGoodProj1 after nearly a year of being merely re-organised electrons. Humans can learn via Zoom, but can they flourish via Zoom? We'll ask a few people later this term.
Very interesting lecture recently posted by @AquinasOxford given by Rev Dr Richard Conrad, OP on natural law, with one of its subtitles 'Changeless and Developing?' A good intro to Aquinas' notion of law generally. Key: All 'law' is an act of reason.

Key from Intro: '[A]lso of paramount importance for this project to continue to flourish is answering second-order juridical questions about how the basic precepts of the classic legal tradition are best made concrete under contemporary social, economic and political conditions.'

In case you missed the last Conversation in our Trinity Term series with @LordHastings, here it is again. His closing remarks are quite inspiring -- specially addressed to students finishing their studies.
