Fr. Gregory Pine, O.P. "The Current of Desire: A Philosophy of Love in Motion"

The popular prophets of the twenty-first century encourage a wholesale embrace of human desire. If you want it, you ought to have it. But, to what extent can our desires be trusted? And, in what sense do they reveal our destiny? This lecture will consider desire according to the mind of St. Thomas Aquinas as a love in motion, specifically a love that stands in need of healing and growth. For only with order and by discipline does one attain to the horizon of his homing.
