Re: St Thomas More Law Society
I believe there was one years ago, but it is currently dormant and I suspect that the work load level makes it unlikely that another extra-curricular organization will get going anytime soon. Despite that, I find the writings of St. Thomas More, Kt. very engaging and his life inspirational. I looked up some of his judicial decisions in equity when he was Lord Chancellor of England and found them to be facinating. He was a firm believer that the Lord Chancellor should serve as the conscience of the King and find equitable remedies to disputes where the Common Law of England failed to provide resolution. I am also most impressed by the way he faced death. Under the concept of "the last thing one does on earth is die, do it well" I would say that he did it very well indeed.
