Princeton professor explains why he and some friends have decided to proclaim June as the month in which Americans collectively recommit themselves to fidelity.
According to Professor Robert P. George, fidelity is the key to addressing the problems that beset contemporary America.
A leading Catholic public intellectual who is the McCormick Professor of Jurisprudence and director of the James Madison Program in American Ideals and Institutions at Princeton University, George has described the Church’s clerical abuse scandal as a “crisis of infidelity” that requires a recommitment of fidelity to Church teaching “about God, about the dignity of the human person, about sex and marriage, [and] about justice.”
Likewise, in the academy and in a variety of forums, he has called for a revitalization of fidelity in politics and other sectors.
