15 Apr 2025
Why is philosophy essential for understanding Catholic theology? Today, Dr. Michael Dauphinais interviews Dr. Steven Long, well-known theologian and Professor of Theology at Ave Maria University, about the relationship between philosophy and theology in the Catholic tradition. They discuss how the abandonment of realist philosophy has undermined theological truth, the importance of natural law for human flourishing, and Dr. Long’s experience championing Thomistic thought when it was largely dismissed in academic circles.
