THEOLOGY 103 : FUNDAMENTAL MORAL THEOLOGY
Saint Louis University Institute of Philosophy and Religion
27-30 April and 4-9 May 2009

COURSE DESCRIPTION : Responding to the process of moral discernment today demands that we focus on the story of the person, the situation of the poor, of women, and of care for the earth. These life situations reflect various paradigms that condition if not guide, moral preferences and behavior. Renewal in moral theology calls for a paradigm shift that is responsive and critical to the demands of Filipino social and cultural realities. A change in moral paradigm requires a shift in thinking and values.
