Manage episode 445266583 series 3447532
How does Catholic theology provide a unique response to the modern tensions between utopianism and dystopianism?
Today, Dr. Michael Dauphinais speaks with Dr. Marc Guerra, alumnus of Ave Maria's Ph.D. in Theology program (2007), and Provost & Senior V.P. for Academic Affairs at Assumption University (Worcester, MA), about the Catholic approach to utopian and dystopian thought. Drawing from St. Augustine's City of God and the writings of Pope Benedict XVI, they discuss how Christianity offers hope amid the unrealistic promises of modern utopias and the fears of dystopian futures. They explore themes of human imperfection, gratitude, and a Christian understanding of progress.
