SUMMARY:The Spiritual Crises of Modernity: From Nominalism to Nihilism
DESCRIPTION:The Spiritual Crises of Modernity: From Nominalism to Nihilism \n\n\n\nA Maurin Academy course with Deacon Christopher May \n\n\n\n7 pm CDT on Tuesdays October 08\, 15\, 22\, 29 \n\n\n\nReportedly\, William Temple\, who became the Archbishop of Canterbury in 1942\, once asked his father\, who was then the Archbishop: “Father\, why don’t philosophers rule the world?” His father looked down at him and replied\, “But they do rule the world — 200 years after they are dead.” \n\n\n\nIn this course\, we will examine how certain rarified discussions among philosophers that took place in Europe about the year 1300 dramatically changed our concepts of God\, of the human person\, of the natural world\, and of knowledge\, and so set the stage for the subsequent development of the Modern experiment. \n\n\n\nWe’ll not speculate too much about “what to do” and “where do we go from here.” Rather we’ll try to recapture an appreciation of what we as a civilization lost when we took the deadly detour to Modernity. We’ll try to identify some of the unchallenged and unacknowledged assumptions that have brought us a world that seems so inimical to human flourishing. We can’t learn how to “make a world where it is easier to be good” until we know just what it is that we’ve already done to make a world where it seems so difficult to be good. \n\n\n\nWe’ll start by looking at late Medieval debates about what “is” is (without apology to Bill Clinton)\, then look at how this led to a redefinition of the nature of God and of the human person. Then on to the split between faith and reason\, to our change in our ideas about nature and the world\, to the increasing emphasis on the individual and on sovereignty\, to the rise of science\, and how the dominance of science led to the marginalization and privatization of morality. Finally we’ll examine how late modernity\, with its neoliberal capitalism\, is the cause of much spiritual distress and mental illness. \n\n\n\nClass Schedule: \n\n\n\nOctober 8: The Crisis of Being – Security is Lost \n\n\n\nOctober 15: The Crisis of Meaning – Reality is Lost \n\n\n\nOctober 22: The Crisis of Knowledge – Security is Sought \n\n\n\nOctober 29: The Crisis of the Self – Community is Lost \n\n\n\nChristopher May is a Catholic deacon in Pennsylvania\, serving the poor\, especially those who experience mental health challenges.

SUMMARY:Sugar Creek Midwest CW Gathering
DESCRIPTION:2023 Sugar Creek Gathering\n\n\n\nFrom organizer Eric Anglada: \n\n\n\n\n\nIt’s getting close to Sugar Creek time\, folks! Take a look at details below – I’d love to be inundated with volunteers for cooking meals (Friday supper through Sunday breakfast for roughly 75 people)\, Sunday CW liturgy planning\, variety show mc!  \n\n\n\nSugar Creek Catholic Worker Gathering \n\n\n\nSeptember 12-15th\, 2024 \n\n\n\nSaints Mary and Joseph Catholic Church  \n\n\n\n3218 110th St. – Preston\, Iowa 52069 \n\n\n\nAlso be in touch if you’d like to reserve one of the few\, precious (and tiny) private rooms.  \n\n\n\nA few notes before Maria’s Sugar Creek orientation below: \n\n\n\n-The house at SugarCreek is wheel chair accessible.  \n\n\n\n-For those interested in Mass at the adjacent church\, it’s happening at 8am that Sunday. \n\n\n\n-We need $800 to cover costs. Anything we raise beyond that will go towards Honor Native Land Fund.  \n\n\n\nFor people who haven’t been before\, I copied and pasted the below from Maria Bergh: \n\n\n\n-You can get to SugarCreek as early as Thursday\, but most people show up on Friday and there are no group meals provided until Friday supper.  \n\n\n\n-The only food and drinks we have while we’re there is what we bring. Don’t depend on someone else to bring you food outside of planned meals — this is a great chance to empty your cupboards of all the stuff that hasn’t been eaten in the last six months. Likewise\, this is an event with alcohol\, if you want to drink\, consider making a contribution.  \n\n\n\n-It’s customary for large-ish CW contingents to support Saturday/Sunday meals. That means bringing the ingredients and prepping\, cooking\, serving the meal. It is customary to accommodate vegetarian\, vegan\, and GF options. There may be extra ingredients around to use from farms or other donations\, but no promises. BYO spices\, oils\, some even BYO sharp knives\, but most basic equipment is provided. Other CWs usually pitch in to support the dishwashing to lighten the load.  \n\n\n\n-Agenda: Friday night is informal fun / campfire\, Saturday morning is introductions\, agenda setting\, and then 3 round table sessions\, usually with 3-4 options of round tables during each session. One of the round table sessions occurs concurrent with a soccer game. After dinner is a skit / talent show. Be prepared. Sunday morning breakfast\, worship\, clean up & departures. \n\n\n\n-Accommodations: there are limited indoor restrooms including tiny showers\, a CW-esque kitchen\, several bunk rooms (bring your own linens\, pillows)\, a field for tents\, and port a potties. There are a couple private rooms\, priority for families with kids. \n\n\n\n-Rules: don’t sleep in the cemetery\, no pets. \n\n\n\n-Pack it out: all the extra food / compost / trash / recycling needs to go somewhere. Usually nearby farms take the compost\, but if you have room in your car for a bag of trash or recycling\, please help the cause. Usually you can also easily score a sandwich and / or snack (or more valuable things like a jar of honey or pickles) for the ride home as you help clean up the kitchen. \n\n\n\n\nPeace\, \n\n\n\n\nEric Anglada – St. Isidore Catholic Worker Farm  \n\n\n\n608.568.3630 (landline)  \n\n\n\ncatholicwo…@gmail.com

SUMMARY:Agronomic University Online
DESCRIPTION:Agronomic University Spring Semester: The Order and Beauty of the World  \n\n\n\nThursdays\, 5-6:15 pm Pacific via Zoom\, beginning February 1st \n\n\n\nSign up here \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis spring and summer’s agronomic university semester will be devoted to contemplation of what Simone Weil calls “the order and beauty of the world.” In what will serve as the theme-setting piece\, her essay “Forms of the Implicit Love of God\,” she points to an underlying affinity between science\, art\, religion\, and personal love. Each involves our relationship with particular “images” or models of God’s creation as a whole – as beautiful\, as coherent\, as obedient\, or as responsive to us\, respectively.  \n\n\n\nWhen we contemplate such images with attention\, Weil claims they function as “sacraments”– even the cosmological and mathematical models that will be our focus. Like sacraments [from Greek\, mysterion] proper\, these images are icons of the mystery of Truth itself–functioning this way for us because of\, rather than in spite of\, their limiting particularities.  \n\n\n\nWith this potential in mind\, we will turn our attention to an eclectic set of images/models: from cosmology (ancient Roman\, modern\, and Biblical)\, geometry (Pythagorean\, Byzantine iconography\, and as applied ethically/spiritually)\, and “pattern language” as it is described by the architect Christopher Alexander. Rather than a formal class\, our time together will take the form of shared exploration with occasional help from guest presenters and facilitators.  \n\n\n\nOur discussions take place on Thursdays\, 5-6:15 pm Pacific / 8-9:15 pm Eastern via Zoom.  \n\n\n\nDuring our first session on 2/1\, we will discuss Weil’s “Forms of the Implicit Love of God.”  \n\n\n\nDuring the rest of February\, we will be joined by Andrew Brown – a Ph.D. Candidate in physics at Princeton\, poet\, and an incredible teacher! – who will lead our unit on ancient and modern cosmology\, taking Roman poet Lucretius’ On the Nature of Things and Stephen Hawking’s A Brief History of Time as our primary texts. \n\n\n\nYou can find a full (tentative) calendar here.  \n\n\n\nSign up to join us here!  \n\n\n\nFor background on the Simone Weil Catholic Worker’s “agronomic university” project\, including past courses on recapitulation and Scripture\, check out our website.
