From Aquinas to Abortion: Self-Consuming Sexual Sagas of the New Natural Law

Last updated on: November 9, 2019 at 1:27 pm By Peter Hammond Schwartz

Natural law philosophy assumes intrinsic rational capacities of humans to properly perceive and pursue uniquely human goods. For centuries, natural law assumptions of intrinsic human rational capacities have been theologically agnostic. No Creator God required. Thoroughly optional! Beneath these open skies, natural law philosophy ranged broadly and proactively across the spectrum of evolving human circumstances and needs, to encompass international law, revolution and self-determination, social justice, and human rights. Since 1965, conservative natural law philosophers have systematically reverted to traditional... Read more

Amy Wax is Whack

Last updated on: October 1, 2019 at 10:37 am By Peter Hammond Schwartz

The New Yorker’s contentious interview with conservative University of Pennsylvania law professor Amy Wax (entitled A Penn Law Professor Wants to Make America White Again) is so weird. I sensed some of this weirdness in my own analysis of Amy Wax’s (much-maligned) address to the (much-maligned) July conference on National Conservatism in Washington, DC. But she ratchets up the strangeness in her Q&A with Isaac Chotiner. Wax is both bright and obtuse at the same time. She generally defends free speech and free... Read more

NYT 1619 History Project

Last updated on: October 1, 2019 at 11:23 am By Peter Hammond Schwartz

The NY Times knows what’s up. You don’t have to love or agree with the premise of the Times 1619 Project – that we can only understand American history by placing slavery and racism at the center of that history. You don’t have to think the essays represent transformative historiography. What matters is that with this project the terms of a real conversation about American history can now take place. History is inherently a conservative academic discipline (methodologically and, to some... Read more

The selections below illustrate the broad scope and application of natural law philosophy to Christian conservative perspectives on the issues that most divide the United States (and European nations) in this historical moment: a) how we think about and interpret history; b) the legacy and meaning of slavery and racism for national identity; c) migration, borders, empathy, and identity; d) Christianity, capitalism, and socialism; e) free will, self-ownership, and suicide; g) Western civilization as the mirror of God; h) tradition...

Agent of Misdirection: John Calipari and the Theatrics of Race, Basketball, and Money

Last updated on: August 19, 2019 at 11:58 am By Peter Hammond Schwartz

Misdirection. A form of deception in which the attention of an audience is focused on one thing in order to distract its attention from another. Managing the audience’s attention is the aim of all theater, it is the foremost requirement of theatrical magic. – Wikipedia On November 6, 2018, in a much-anticipated game on the first day of the NCAA men’s basketball season, the preseason 4th-ranked Duke Blue Devils, led by the incomparable South Carolina freshman Zion Williamson, thrashed the...
