VIDEO: Modernity, Religion and Morality: A Conversation with George Weigel and Yoram Hazony


December 11, 2015 | The Tikvah Fund’s Advanced Institute, Jerusalem


On November 12, 2015, EPPC Distinguished Senior Fellow George Weigel participated in a discussion at the Tikvah Fund’s Advanced Institute in Jerusalem. Here is the Tikvah Fund’s description of the event:

During last month’s Advanced Institute in Jerusalem, “God, Politics, and the Future of Europe,” Tikvah hosted a conversation on “Modernity, Religion and Morality” to discuss the decline of Western Civilization and to probe some of the reasons behind it. What happens when faith in the God of the Bible deteriorates? How does that affect faith in reason and are the values of liberalism enough to sustain a society?

The panel featured prominent intellectuals, George Weigel, Distinguished Senior Fellow and William E. Simon Chair in Catholic Studies at the Ethics and Public Policy Center, and Yoram Hazony, President of the Herzl Institute. The evening’s discussion was moderated by Daniel Johnson, founder and editor of Standpoint Magazine.
