\u201cThe exclusive pursuit of material possessions prevents man’s growth as a human being and stands in opposition to his true grandeur.\u201d\u00a0(Pope St. Paul VI, 19)<\/span> A person who is concerned solely or primarily with possessing and enjoying \u2013 who can no longer subordinate his instincts – cannot be free.<\/span><\/p>\n

Both our physical and human environment are at risk and the Church insists we ignore neither! \u201cIt is contradictory to insist that future generations respect the natural environment when our educational systems and laws do not help them to respect themselves. The book of nature is one and indivisible: it takes in not only the environment but also life, sexuality, marriage, the family, social relations: in a word, integral human development.”<\/span>\u00a0(Pope Benedict XVI, 51)<\/a><\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cThe greatest challenge of our time is secularization\u201d (Pope Benedict XVI, 3)<\/em><\/span>\u200b<\/a>\u00a0Why? Radical secularism holds that there is no such thing as an objective truth. But, \u201cWithout truth, without trust and love for what is true, there is no social conscience and responsibility, and social action ends up serving private interests and the logic of power.\u201d<\/span>\u00a0(Pope Benedict XVI, 5)<\/em>\u200b<\/a><\/p>\n
