The Byzantine Scotist returns to talk about his journal from a nominal Jewish faith to a devout Orthodoxy to, finally, a rich Catholic faith.

We explore Sir Roger's personality, aesthetics, politics, and religious philosophy. Sir Roger Scruton will forever be remembered as restoring conservatism to intellectual respectability among the likes of Edmund Burke.
