LIVE! Fall 2026: Aristotle’s Ethics with Timothy Gordon
Class Description This is arguably the most important class a student will ever take. Education makes us smarter—not for the sake of intelligence alone, but so that we can become morally good. Aristotle, a pagan who lived three centuries before Christ, discovered the key to developing natural human virtue: habit. That is the central topic of this course. Thomas Aquinas simply called Aristotle “The Philosopher,” a testament to his towering importance, and considered his moral teaching on natural law authoritative, even alongside that of Catholic philosophers. Together with the Church History course, this Ethics course will change the worldview of a successful student more drastically than any other class.
