Discussion on Magis Facebook Page

[Anselm33]

For all those interested, there is a discussion page on the Facebook page for the Magis Institute of Faith and Reason (see:facebook.com/MagisReasonFaith
All religious faiths (from none to ? to non-Catholic to Catholic to Young Earther Fundamentalists…) are invited, but please keep the discussion courteous, non-heated and reasonable.
Here is a quotation from “Fides et Ratio”, the encyclical issued by Pope John Paul II, on the engagement of the Church with philosophy that illustrates the motivation for such a page and why the Church does so engage:

"Driven by the desire to discover the ultimate truth of existence, human beings seek to acquire those universal elements of knowledge which enable them to understand themselves better and to advance in their own self-realization. These fundamental elements of knowledge spring from the wonder awakened in them by the contemplation of creation: human beings are astonished to discover themselves as part of the world, in a relationship with others like them, all sharing a common destiny. Here begins, then, the journey which will lead them to discover ever new frontiers of knowledge. Without wonder, men and women would lapse into deadening routine and little by little would become incapable of a life which is genuinely personal.
