Announcing: FIDES-ET-RATIO (Faith and Reason)

A List Dedicated to the Reading and Understanding of the Encyclical
"Fides et Ratio" by Pope John Paul II


The Free Lance Academy is pleased to announce the formation of the
fides-et-ratio list and you are cordially invited to subscribe.

You may subscribe to the fides-et-ratio list via e-mail by sending a

The discussion leader for the fides-et-ratio list is Daniel Scuiry
[Daniel.Scuiry@...]. It was also his idea to create this list.
The following is Daniel Scuiry's description of the intention for the
list.

"The purpose of the fides-et-ratio list is to host a critical reading
of the papal encyclical, "Fides et Ratio (Faith and Reason)". We will
survey the encyclical's text with an aim towards relating it to issues
relavent to philosophers, scientists, academics, religionists and
anyone committed to thoughtful reflection on the meaning of personal
existence: "All men and women ... are in some sense philosophers and
have their own philosophical conceptions with which they direct their
lives. In one way or other, they shape a comprehensive vision and an
answer to the question of life's meaning..." (Fides et Ratio, #30).
Our goal is to offer readers, through the benefit of an open forum,
the opportunity to form their own conscience and make their own
critical judgment on the meaning and implications this encyclical may
have in their lives. Hence this list is open to anyone, regardless of
background or theistic persuasion, who believes the encyclical has
meaning and impact in their own lives or the lives of others."

The plan is to complete the reading of Fides et Ration within
approximately four to six months.
