In this meetup we will explore Sacredness, a perhaps non-traditional philosophical concept. There is the expression “Is anything sacred anymore?” In today’s secular society, and from a primarily analytic perspective, we might legitimately ask if sacredness is just a quaint remnant of bygone days. Yet I am curious about how this concept still holds weight in the modern world. Typically, when speaking of the “sacred” we might set out initially from religious context, imagining sacred forms as dwelling in: 1. *Texts/Ideas*: such as the Bible, Torah, or Koran 2. *Objects*: such as the Shroud of Turin, tribal headdresses, or maybe even sacred weapons. 3. *Places*: such as Mecca, or Notre Dame cathedral 4. *Events*: such as baptisms, pilgrimages Yet we need not take sacredness from a purely religious frame; it can be evaluated on own its terms. For example, we can see sacredness as overlaying ordinary ideas, objects, places, and events with an extra, supervening, bit of respect. A setting aside from the mundane experience with a bit of reverence. Almost as an emergent property of existence itself, that imbues the transient with a resonating connection to eternal form. A representation of something as worthwhile beyond its basic utility. Notions that bear repetition, or warrant preservation, to remind us of transcendent connections. Then sacredness can branch out into all kinds of non-religious elements. Relationships to friends and family, nostalgia for our past, connection with nature, respect for life, even national or political identities we take seriously. I posit that there is a subtext of sacred aspect in many intentional actions of our daily lives. And these aspects are ever present with how we actually function in the world, whether we admit religious identity or not. Charles Taylor, Canadian philosopher, discusses how as we seek a place for self in contemporary society, that we search for meaning beyond just instrumental gains. The sacred is the antithesis of the materialistic. We seek to transcend purely physical, utilitarian endeavors. Sacredness is not only doctrinal belief, but also a background of meaning-making. The practices, narratives, and institutions that evolve and develop sacred goods that shape identities. Some starter questions for discussion: How does sacredness relate to the epistemological? Is the sacred “knowable” in any rational or empirical sense? Is it only accessible via intuition and mystery? How does it relate to the metaphysical? A sacred relic might be identical to a non-sacred object—with the same atoms, same physical properties—yet it gets treated differently. Why is that? Who makes the call about the enchanted/disenchanted divide? Is it a communal or personal assessment?

Francis Hutcheson (1694-1746) was a pivotal early figure of the Scottish Enlightenment, a movement which strongly embraced empiricism and concentrated on the study of human nature and the relationship of individuals and society. Born in Ireland to a line of Scottish Presbyterian ministers, Hutcheson was educated by dissenting Irish Presbyterians in Ulster before matriculating at the University of Glasgow, where he studied philosophy and theology. In 1719 he was licensed to preach in Ireland, but rather than adopting the more traditional views of his forefathers, he gravitated toward the tolerant and liberal “New Light” Presbyterianism. Instead of further pursuing the ministry for which he had trained, he put his efforts into founding a dissenting academy in Dublin—a successful venture that occupied him for the next ten years. While teaching in Dublin, he moved in intellectual circles, and it was there that he wrote the four early treatises—collected into two books, the *Inquiry* of 1725 and the *Essay* of 1728—that quickly established his reputation as a philosopher. On being appointed chair of moral philosophy at his alma mater, he left Ireland for Glasgow in 1729. Contemporaries described Hutcheson as a popular and animated professor—the first at Glasgow to deliver lectures in English rather than exclusively in Latin. His most famous student was Adam Smith (enrolled 1737-40). Hutcheson's influence on Scottish thinkers was considerable. With his emphasis on the primacy of feeling over reason in our moral perceptions, he inspired David Hume’s moral sentimentalism. His analysis of natural rights and property in the *Inquiry* (Treat. II Sect. VII) as well as in his later works directly influenced Smith. The Scottish school of common sense realism derived partly from Hutcheson's explication of moral sense theory. His influence also made its way to colonial America, where his works were included in college curricula beginning in the mid-1700s. John Adams and other signers of the Declaration of Independence are known to have read Hutcheson. In the *Inquiry*, he takes up Locke’s epistemology of sense perception and broadens it into a theory of the “internal senses”—faculties of perception as powerful as the commonly designated five external senses. Elaborating Lord Shaftesbury’s notion of a “moral sense” and the earl's analogy between beauty and virtue, Hutcheson divided his *Inquiry* into a discussion of the sense of beauty and of the paramount moral sense—both being internal senses which operate without depending on mediation by the will or reason. Like Shaftesbury and the philosopher Richard Cumberland, Hutcheson held a strong distaste for the Hobbesian worldview. In the vein of the former two, he promoted a vision of humans as naturally benevolent and innately interested in the welfare of others, maintaining that others’ good brings us no less pleasure than our own good. Notably, he also sowed the seeds of utilitarian thought with his phrase “the greatest happiness for the greatest numbers” (Treat. II Sect. III). **Main Reading** The reading below is available at the Online Library of Liberty: * The [Inquiry](https://oll.libertyfund.org/titles/leidhold-an-inquiry-into-the-original-of-our-ideas-of-beauty-and-virtue-1726-2004), comprising the first two of Hutcheson's four early treatises (we are reading the 1726, or 2nd edition, of the book): read the [Preface](https://oll.libertyfund.org/titles/leidhold-an-inquiry-into-the-original-of-our-ideas-of-beauty-and-virtue-1726-2004#lf1458_head_019) and Treat.

Healthcare organizations are increasingly using cloud-based real-world evidence (RWE) platforms to power clinical research, population health analytics, and AI-driven insights. However, building these systems on AWS introduces complex governance challenges around privacy, compliance, and multi-institution collaboration. This session explores how to architect data governance into healthcare analytics platforms on AWS, focusing on practical design patterns rather than policy theory. We examine how ethical data stewardship principles such as consent, accountability, and responsible data use, can be implemented using cloud-native controls and services. The presentation walks through key architectural considerations for secure RWE platforms on AWS, including role-based access control, auditability, data minimization, and encryption, and how these capabilities support compliance requirements such as HIPAA and GDPR. Attendees will learn how federated, multi-account AWS architectures enable collaboration across institutions while preserving local data ownership and control. We will also discuss privacy-preserving analytics patterns on AWS, including approaches that support federated learning, differential privacy, and secure computation to enable AI-driven insights without exposing raw patient data. Practical implementation trade-offs such as performance, scalability, and operational complexity will be highlighted using real-world platform scenarios. Attendees will leave with actionable AWS architecture patterns and governance strategies for building secure, compliant, and scalable real-world evidence platforms that unlock innovation while maintaining patient trust.
