About This Talk

In this inaugural talk for Houston Theology On Tap (at Quenby Abbey), Dr. Randall Smith of University of Saint Thomas opens with the perineal question: What is happiness? The question begs for a goal or 'end' that points to human flourishing. Dr. Smith answers the question, drawing on classic Greek philosophy and Saint Thomas Aquinas.
