Lex Naturalis Volume 5, 2020

Tim L. Jacobs contribution: “The Erring Conscience: Aquinas on Freedom of Conscience in Pluralistic Society”

In Lex Naturalis, ethical questions that challenge our contemporary world as well as the relationships between natural law and related fields such as constitutional law and international law are examined, explored, and elucidated. The journal seeks to present the vitality and variety of thought within that community of intellectuals who cannot and will not separate ethics from the conclusions that have been and are still being drawn from natural law.

Volume 5 includes articles on Aquinas and the freedom of conscience in pluralistic society, American law’s personalist future, and a critique of Alasdair MacIntyre’s natural law analysis
