Pope Benedict XVI Addressed the US Bishops Jan. 19, 2012 
“…it is imperative that the entire Catholic community in the United States come to realize the grave threats to the Church’s public moral witness presented by a radical secularism which finds increasing expression in the political and cultural sphere…

Nicholas J. Cammarota  will conduct this class in the Socratic method - not in lecture style but rather directed discussion. He will guide the participants to understand what the author is intending to impart, then discuss the degree to which the work is true and practical in various ways.

Mr. Cammarota is a native Sacramentan who graduated from Thomas Aquinas College with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Philosophy/Liberal Arts in 1984. He has been practicing law for 20 years and has been a registered lobbyist for the past 12 years. He has done post graduate studies in the Church’s teachings on Politics and Economics at Thomas Aquinas College sponsored by the Aquinas Review.
