Fr Austin returns to this perennially important topic, with the hope that our thinking about it can be aided with some tools drawn from the thinking of Augustine and other greats, who were themselves thinking about war in terms shaped by the Bible. A good but challenging book on the subject is Oliver O’Donovan’s The Just War Revisited

This week’s topic: Fr Austin will distribute for our discussion an article by Oliver O’Donovan on the killing of Osama bin-Laden, together with replies, as published recently in The Living Church. This will give us an opportunity to see how the conception of war as an extension of the practice of judgment, and particularly the notions of discrimination and proportionality, play out in a particular case. Everyone is welcome.
