The Virtuous Cooperator: Modeling The Human In An Ecologically Endangered Age, Jame Schaefer Jan 2003

The Virtuous Cooperator: Modeling The Human In An Ecologically Endangered Age, Jame Schaefer

Theology Faculty Research and Publications

A theological model of the human is needed to prompt responsible thinking about and acting within the physical world. Some basic components for modeling the human as a virtuous cooperator appear in the teachings of Thomas Aquinas. When appropriated cautiously and informed broadly by contemporary scientific findings, this model provides a promising way of thinking about humans in relation to other species and ecological systems, a framework for acting responsibly, and the motivation for making this behavior habitual.
