Last Monday, our students had the privilege of attending a lecture by George Weigel, entitled Faith, Reason, and the War against Jihadism. The lecture was sponsored by the Foreign Policy Research Institute and was given at the Union League of Philadelphia. George Weigel is a Senior Fellow of the Ethics and Public Policy Center in Washington. Mr. Weigel is very concerned about American “cultural self confidence,” and whether Americans know enough about our country to be convicted that the American system is worth preserving. Mr. Weigel was heard on Thursday being interviewed by WNTP radio host Dennis Prager, about the deplorable state of law in Britain where enclaves of muslim sharia law has been protected, including allowing “honor killings” of young women who do not wear the veil, etc.
