Good discussion. <br /><br />I bit the financial bullet and bought both <i>Aquinas</i> and <i>By Man Shall His Blood Be Shed: A Catholic Defense of Capital Punishment</i>. <br /><br />I'm particularly interested in the intro to natural law. Cy's plug pushed me over the edge. I also want to see if there are any studies that support the assertion that potential killers refrained from killing in a state with the death penalty. How could one know that? Did they intentionally stalk the victim to from one state to another?

So the Church's condemnation of the narrow meaning is not the same thing as what it permitted a long time ago.Tonyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07159134209092031897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8954608646904080796.post-19022338847771955082017-07-14T14:32:50.684-07:002017-07-14T14:32:50.684-07:00Mid-stream:

Stuart Swetland, but if he generally holds what he presents today in his remarks, his notion of reformability of Church doctrine is unworkable. He thinks Church doctrine "develops" by changing from thinking X is morally approved to morally proscribed, indeed intrinsically wrong. Well, I don't know how he defends magisterial infallibility, because he just blows it up right and left. <br />Tonyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07159134209092031897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8954608646904080796.post-28115840619624769182017-07-13T11:14:50.202-07:002017-07-13T11:14:50.202-07:00Oh my goodness -- I can't wait for the debate ...Oh my goodness -- I can't wait for the debate tomorrow with Msgr. Stuart Swetland. I find that while I will disagree with Msgr. on various political issues, he is a good and faithful son of the church and his theology is solid (at least many of the answers he gives to the kinds of questions he gets on "Go Ask Your Father", a radio show he'll host from time to time, seem orthodox to me.)<br /><br />I wish you both well and look forward to an excellent debate!!!Jeffrey S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10411126704920184190noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8954608646904080796.post-64260213762839089512017-07-10T22:53:00.398-07:002017-07-10T22:53:00.398-07:00Wow, looks like a busy week!
