Pascal Society

This group is exclusively for undergraduate students at the University of Florida and Santa Fe College. Students must register with Dr. Horner, be willing to read between fifty and a hundred pages prior to each session, and commit to attending all four sessions over the course of the semester. The aim of the group is to see how Christian theology can frame and enrich human experience. The group will feature readings on imagination (Flannery O’Connor), desire (C. S. Lewis), thought (Blaise Pascal), and moral intuition (C. S. Lewis). Please contact Dr. Horner directly for further information.

Schedule:
All meetings are Thursday evenings, 6:15-7:30pm

“Submission. One must know when it is right to doubt, to affirm, to submit. Anyone who does otherwise does not understand the force of reason. Some men run counter to these three principles, either affirming that everything can be proved, because they know nothing about proof, or doubting everything, because they do not know when to submit, or always submitting, because they do not know when judgement is called for. Sceptic, mathematician, Christian; doubt, affirmation, submission.”

Blaise Pascal
