When the Enlightenment Hit the Neighborhoods
  Faith, Reason, and the Search for the Sacred

How is it that in one generation we have experienced a huge deflation in traditional religious belief and in communal access to the sacred? This site explores what went on, particularly in the Roman Catholic Church, between the time that I came of age and the time my children came of age.

It asks and attempts to answer the question: What the heck happened?

There's a blog, a summary of the thought of Aquinas (a key part of the way forward) and notes on a book in progress.

The Blog.  As I write the book: thoughts on faith, reason and the search for the sacred, and what Aquinas has to do with it all.

The Summary.  A recap of the thought of Aquinas, explained as plainly as I can. This is the groundwork. Comes with a nice Outline.

The Book.  A work in progress: In the 1960s, the “Enlightenment hit the neighborhoods” and regular people began questioning the traditional beliefs of faith and the authority that validated those beliefs.

Exactly how did that all happen and where do we go from here?
