Theme: The Catholic Reconquest: Motives, Models, and Methods

Title: Reconquering Higher Education

By Dr. Thomas Droleskey

Doctor Droleskey argues that Catholics must actively conform their thinking to the traditional, unchanging teachings of the Church. He asserts that this requires a conscious effort to study and embrace the mind of the Church as expressed through Scripture, Tradition, and the writings of popes and saints throughout history. He contrasts this with a modern tendency to rely on personal opinions or feelings, which he believes leads to confusion and a weakening of faith. The lecture emphasizes that this intellectual formation is not merely an academic exercise but is essential for navigating the spiritual and cultural challenges of the present age. He calls for a deep, intellectual loyalty to Catholic doctrine as the foundation for a truly faithful life.
