The Sin of Curiosity (Respectable Sins Series)
Manage episode 425738342 series 3365493
We start a new series on “respectable sins” which talks about the vices we often mistake for virtues. In this episode we talk about curiosity as a vice. In an age where information is abundant and easily accessible, we often find ourselves overwhelmed by the constant influx of data. But are we equipped with the moral formation necessary to use this information wisely?
Join us as we explore the teachings of Thomas Aquinas and other voices from the church tradition on the virtues of focus, studiousness, and attention. We will discuss how the unchecked pursuit of knowledge can lead to distraction and a lack of discernment, while a disciplined approach to learning can help us grow in wisdom and virtue.
