The Virtuous Life

Fr. Thomas Joseph White, O.P. is the rector magnificus of the Pontifical University of St. Thomas Aquinas in Rome, commonly known as the Angelicum. In this video, he talks about how pursuing a virtuous life is also a pursuit of human flourishing and happiness. Virtues allow us to have freedom of excellence, rather than freedom of indifference or a legal obligation to be virtuous such as in deontological ethics.
