Eric Nelson "The Theology of Liberalism"

[@cnoyes98]

In searching for some other ground upon which to negotiate this argument, I think it's regrettable at 56:45 that the conversation turns to Adrian Vermeule instead of Judith Shklar, whose reflections on the "liberalism of fear," and the prioritization of mercy over justice as a virtue, offers a more promising path forward.

Work is meant to produce an excess which we are to freely give to the needy.

To know evil is to be tempted to do it. To do evil, is to feed the stray dog; who lies at your doorstep asking to be fed again. Man is meant to recognize the one God, and not to offend one another. "Punishment" is either training or expulsion. Life is eternal and heaven would not be heaven if the rebellious were there.
