Philosopher J. Budziszewski asks how the knowledge of good is related to the knowledge of God, how things that seem to run against the grain of human nature can become ""second nature"", and whether natural law can be reconciled with Darwinian evolution. Turning to politics, he takes up such topics as who counts as a human person, whether human dignity is compatible with capital punishment, and how an ersatz state religion can be built in the name of Toleration.
