Wisdom of the Heart
With the rapid developments of artificial intelligence across all areas of society, especially within the last two years, the present paper provides a much-needed focus on the relationship between AI and religion by providing a review of recently published academic works from 2024 to early 2025 in the area of AI and religion.

Incommunicative Action
Deliberative democracy is a noble project: an attempt to make citizens philosophize. Critics of deliberative democracy usually claim either that the proposed deliberation threatens an existing moral consensus or, instead, that deliberation is impossible amid power imbalances that oppress the weak. But another problem is that combining democracy and deliberation is inherently an attempt to engage publicly in a private activity—where sensitivity to…
Free Speech and Democracy in Ancient Athens
Free Speech and Democracy in Ancient Athens. By Arlene W. Saxonhouse. New York: Cambridge University Press, 2005. 246p. $70.00.The subject of this book is parrhêsia, free or, as the author sometimes prefers, frank speech. Through close readings of stories by Plato and Homer, she identifies free speech with shamelessness and self-exposure, claiming that “[s]hame and free speech represent opposing points in the political order that play off one ano…
The Overreach of Political Education and Liberalism's Philosopher-Democrat
Contemporary political educators seek to elicit critical self-reflection (autonomy) alongside the commitments, affections, and dispositions that make democracy possible (democratic affect). The liberal ambition to develop a society in which each individual freely chooses a democratic polity, meaning chooses it with full knowledge, requires the improbable creation of the philosopher-democrat. By focusing their attentions on the practice of impleme…
Hobbes's contempt for opinions
Thomas Hobbes denied both that opinion provides access to truth and that it ought to be protected from political manipulation. Hobbes knew that his contempt for opinion put him at odds with the classical tradition of political philosophy. What he could not have known was that it also would put him at odds with modern, liberal democracy, which protects opinions—the opinions of the public—that it cannot invest with truth value

The Decline and Fall of the Supreme Court
Albacini and His English Patrons
In the final quarter of the eighteenth century, Carlo Albacini was the sculptor-restorer most closely associated with the Anglo-Roman milieu; as a result, many of the finest Graeco-Roman Sculptures which found their way into English collections passed through his hands, In the early 1770s Albacini formed a close professional relationship with the Rome-based English art dealer Thomas Jenkins, and thereafter became his principal restorer. A key cli…
