Dr. Robert George to lecture April 7


A year ago, during Professor Robert George’s keynote address at the National Catholic Prayer Breakfast, he challenged Catholics to bear witness boldly to the sanctity of human life and the conjugal understanding of marriage, despite the opprobrium that might arise for proclaiming these profound but not-always-welcome moral truths.  

Dr. George will revisit the main themes of the prayer breakfast address in his lecture to be held April 7 at 7 p.m. in St. Gregory the Great Parish Center, Hamilton Square. He will explore the relationship between the obligation to bear moral witness and the concepts of Christian discipleship and the universal call to holiness. 

A member of St. Paul Parish, Princeton, Dr. George is McCormick Professor of Jurisprudence and director of the James Madison Program in American Ideals and Institutions at Princeton University.  He is currently a vice chair of the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom and holds degrees in law and theology from Harvard University and a doctorate in philosophy of law from Oxford University, in addition to many honorary degrees.  He is the author or editor of numerous books in the fields of constitutional law, ethics, and legal and political philosophy. Dr. George is an internationally known speaker and TV/radio guest who has been called “America’s most influential conservative Christian thinker.”
