The 32nd Annual Christopher F. Mooney S.J. Lecture in Theology, Religion and Society | Dr. Aristotle Papanikolaou | Fordham University
About this Event
1700 years ago, the Council of Nicaea (325) was convened by the Roman Emperor, Constantine, as the first global synod of Christian leaders. Along with practical matters like the date of Easter, the council affirmed the full divinity of Jesus Christ—“Godfrom God, Light from Light, true God from true God”—setting forth the foundations for the Christian creed and sparking a revolution in thinking about divine-human communion. To address this important topic, Fairfield University is delighted to be hosting Aristotle Papanikolaou, Professor of Theology, Archbishop Demetrios Chair in Orthodox Theology and Culture, and Co-founding Director of the Orthodox Christian Studies Center at Fordham University.
