Description
Lisa Sowle Cahill is a theological ethicist who joined us at our recent CST Conference. We discussed her work in the field of ethics covering sex & gender, war & peace, and most recently bioethics and the effects of climate change. She shared that the ethical problems related to climate change are important for testing the framework of CST and offered a critique of the Pope's use of feminine terms in Laudato Sí. We also discussed Flint's water contamination and how race and poverty played into that crisis.
