DESCRIPTION

The Woodstock Theological Center is an independent nonprofit institute established by the Society of Jesus (the Jesuits) at Georgetown University in 1974. The mission of the Woodstock Theological Center is to engage in theological and ethical reflection on topics of social, economic, business, scientific, cultural, religious, and political importance. While this is important work in today's society, this Center falls very short. It seems that the truly Catholic perspective is sacrificed for a more "mainstream" approach to these issues.
