Children’s Moral Agency in Community in advance
Theological understandings of children’s moral agency can benefit from attention to Lev Vygotsky’s dialectical, sociocultural theory of child development. Viewing development as a series of transformations resulting from scaffolded learning in response to new challenges, rather than as an additive process, it anticipates uneven, diverse, and nonlinear processes of growth. It connects moral reasoning with moral agency without using verbal moral re…
Tragic Dilemmas in Christian Ethics, by Kate Jackson-Meyer
Ecclesiology and Trans* Inclusion
In a proleptically queer mode, Avery Cardinal Dulles’s Models of the Church argued that the church—a mystery—must bear multiple simultaneously true, dynamic, indispensable, yet inadequate labels. If so, one theological test of our ethics is their ability to sustain ecclesiological multiplicity. The anti-trans* policies of some US dioceses and of the Congregation for Catholic Education (CCE) document “‘Male and Female He Created Them’” embrace Dul…
Family/ies and Transcendence
In the 2020s, an account of transcendence and family that both honors Christian tradition and resonates in increasingly secular cultures faces significant challenges. Christians have linked “transcendence” and “family” through marriage, excluding many intimate, committed relationships from full participation in both family and transcendence. The secular global north ricochets between a sentimental vision of family unsupported by social institutio…
Sources of authority in Laudato Si’ 1
Authority does not arrive by fiat but rests on reasons and justifications, even though there’s no time to list them when one’s daughter is about to run ahead to cross the street or has already been asked five times to brush her teeth so that she can go to bed early enough to be rested for school. In EV, John Paul II cites the magisterium by name 13 times and the authority of Catholic tradition generally 14 times. John Paul II gives the impression…
Liberation Through Law
In Black Natural Law, Vincent W. Lloyd mines the writings of four prominent African-American scholar-activists from the mid-nineteenth to the mid-twentieth centuries: Frederick Douglass, Anna Julia
Between a Rock and a Hard Place
Over the last half century, United States debates about abortion focused at first on the question whether the fetus is a person with rights and later on whether involuntary conception—for instance, as a consequence of sexual assault—might mitigate a woman’s responsibilities toward the fetus she carries. This article argues that, whatever one’s position on these two questions, a third, morally salient dimension of most US women’s experiences of un…

Children and Moral Agency
Captivating Illusions
Religious Perspectives on Assisted Suicide
Yale Kamisar's writings add up to an impressive argument against the legalization of assisted suicide and euthanasia, an achievement all the more notable because it does not depend on a blanket moral condemnation of these practices and so avoids becoming mired in the contemporary debate over moral pluralism. My assigned task, nonetheless, is to explore the contribution of religious thought to the debates over both the morality of physician-assist…
