Il testo che ascolterai è tratto interamente dalla tesi di Camilla Franzina “Lupus in Veritate: quando la favola diventa realtà”. Laureatasi in “antropologia culturale, etnologia ed etnolinguistica" all'Università Cà Foscari di Venezia, con Camilla cercheremo di analizzare come l'essere umano ha occupato - e continua ad occupare - un ambiente in cui - ora - non è più solo. Il ritorno dei grandi predatori (in questo caso dei lupi) è un tema caldo e controverso. Da una parte c'è chi accusa i lupi, dall'altra chi ne subisce gli attacchi. Nel mezzo, molto spesso, una scarsa comunicazione tra chi vive le montagne e chi ha - invece - il potere di influenzarne la gestione. Cercheremo di smontare l'arroganza con cui giochiamo a sentirci “al di sopra di tutto”. Sarà un attacco al cuore di noi stessi, alle nostre convinzioni e a tutte quelle teorie che - fin troppo spesso - ci fanno rimanere immobili nella nostra zona di comfort. Un perimetro sicuro, comodo, irreale.

Mi vida. Ratzinger escribiría estas Anotaciones sobre su vida al cumplir los setenta años con la mirada puesta en un bien merecido descanso entregado a la meditación y al estudio sosegado. La Providencia tenía dispuesto otros caminos.   Ratzinger en su libro, no ofrece tanto una autobiografía completa, sino que traza las líneas que permiten descubrir la unidad de toda una existencia. Más que acumulación de datos se nos desvela la interioridad de su autor, poniendo, como de golpe, ante nuestra mirada, el centro de su existencia

Common Good and SocietySolidarity and subsidiarity are two principles of the moral teachings of the Church that are absolutely required for a well-ordered and functioning society. In fact, the common good cannot be served without them. It is from this starting point of the common good that we must begin. Pope St. John XXIII said in 1963 that “... civil authority must strive to promote the common good in the interest of all, without favoring any individual citizen or category of citizen (Pacem in Terris, 56).” Pope Leo XIII even said in 1891 that “civil society exists for the common good, and hence is concerned with the interests of all in general… (Rerum Novarum, 51).”Civil society, serving the common good, is ordered towards men establishing of right-relationship with one another and setting up a commonwealth. No man is an island unto himself and the good of each individual is inextricably linked to the good of the society as a whole. The depths of this reality are rooted in the charity of Almighty God. As Pope Benedict XVI wrote in Caritas in Veritate: “To love someone is to desire that person's good and to take effective steps to secure it (Caritas in Veritate, 7).” How else can this be accomplished than in a community, a society, and gathering of individuals united to common purpose, at least to some large degree. SolidarityThe common good is the aim of civil society, but how is it served? The first principle to examine is solidarity. Solidarity basically is the reality that there is an interdependence among individuals and nations. In his work Centesimus Annus, Pope St. John Paul II provides the historical context of the word solidarity. He reports that in the writings of Pope Leo XIII, the Greek philosophical term of “friendship” is employed with the same meaning as what is now called solidarity. Pope Piux XI refers to solidarity with the term “social charity.” And Pope St. Paul VI expanded “the concept to cover the many modern aspects of the social question, speaks of a ‘civilization of love' (Centesimus Annus, 10).” Pope Benedict XVI put it eloquently to the Pontifical Academy of Social Sciences in 2008 when he said: “Solidarity refers to the virtue enabling the human family to share fully the treasure of material and spiritual goods, and subsidiarity is the coordination of society's activities in a way that supports the internal life of the local communities (Pope Benedict XVI, 2008).”In our modern, interconnected world, with global media, we experience keenly the reality that we are connected. We watch the news and feel personally affected by injustice and human rights violations committed in countries in which we have never stepped foot. There is a moral connotation to this, as well, because we wonder: how can I help? What can I do? The human heart naturally reaches out to the suffering and pain of others and desires justice. Yet, what can we do? Well, in solidarity, we understand that we are interconnected.As St. John Paul II put it 1987:“It is above all a question of interdependence, sensed as a system determining relationships in the contemporary world, in its economic, cultural, political and religious elements, and accepted as a moral category. When interdependence becomes recognized in this way, the correlative response as a moral and social attitude, as a "virtue," is solidarity. This then is not a feeling of vague compassion or shallow distress at the misfortunes of so many people, both near and far. On the contrary, it is a firm and persevering determination to commit oneself to the common good; that is to say to the good of all and of each individual, because we are all really responsible for all (Sollicitudo rei socialis, 38).”Committed to the common good, and aware of the interconnectedness of man, we set out in charity to sanctify the temporal order. This is the heart of solidarity. We see the world as God sees it. We recognize the members of society as persons. Seeing the image of God and recognizing opportunities to practice solidarity do not belong exclusively to one class either. As St. John Paul II puts it:“Those who are more influential, because they have a greater share of goods and common services, should feel responsible for the weaker and be ready to share with them all they possess. Those who are weaker, for their part, in the same spirit of solidarity, should not adopt a purely passive attitude or one that is destructive of the social fabric, but, while claiming their legitimate rights, should do what they can for the good of all. The intermediate groups, in their turn, should not selfishly insist on their particular interests, but respect the interests of others (Sollicitudo rei socialis, 39).”In other words, no one is excused from the practice of Christian charity. Likewise, because civil society exists to serve the common good, an essential condition for global solidarity is autonomy and free self-determination. Men organize themselves to constitute a commonwealth. Government should support this swelling of justice and charity, without undermining it by a tyrannical top-down approach.Government and SolidarityThose in government work can support the practice of solidarity by understanding that man's fulfillment comes by using his intelligence and freedom in freely giving of himself to others. Private initiative and ownership are, therefore, to be respected and kept in preeminent position. To quote St. John Paul II from Centesimus Annus:“Man works in order to provide for the needs of his family, his community, his nation, and ultimately all humanity. Moreover, he collaborates in the work of his fellow employees, as well as in the work of suppliers and in the customers' use of goods, in a progressively expanding chain of solidarity (Centesimus Annus, 43).”It is Catholic and just to ensure bonds of solidarity among working people and allow them to practice useful work, without exploitation and being used as a means of making profit only. Man works to provide for the needs of others and his work ought to firstly expand the work and wealth of society, which then can lead to profits but only secondarily. Even at the level of the family, a mutual support of husband and wife ought to be fostered and care given by one generation to the other. The family is rightly ordered as a community of work and solidarity. Solidarity requires seeing the human person. Often today, we might find two prevailing forces which seek to devalue us. On the one hand, the market sees only producers and consumers of goods. On the other hand, the government only sees statistics and objects of State administration. But society serves the life of human persons and the common good; the market and the State are not the final purpose of society. Associations of persons and state agencies should work to promote a deeper vision of human solidarity. By doing so, solidarity can be shown by civil society in a way surpassing that of any one individual. Pope Francis said in 2013 that “As Church we all have a strong responsibility to spread hope through works of solidarity, always seeking to collaborate in the best possible way with public institutions with respect for their respective responsibilities (Pope Francis, 2013).”As St. John Paul II put it in 1995, “Many Christians from all Communities, by reason of their faith, are jointly involved in bold projects aimed at changing the world by inculcating respect for the rights and needs of everyone, especially the poor, the lowly and the defenceless (Ut Unum Sint, 43).”It is this vision of seeing the human person rather than a vague abstraction and respecting the needs of these persons that we enter into solidarity. As Pope Benedict XVI put it:“Only my readiness to encounter my neighbour and to show him love makes me sensitive to God as well. Only if I serve my neighbour can my eyes be opened to what God does for me and how much he loves me (Deus Caritas Est, 18).”Really, solidarity is instantiated in our place of work when we serve the other. If you are in real estate, are you viewing the human purpose of the structure you are helping to buy and sell? In healthcare, are you treating symptoms and diseases or paying care to the whole human person? In government, are you giving due deference to human communities or simply building a more efficient bureaucracy?Pope Francis warned us in 2013 that “This word solidarity runs the risk of being deleted from the dictionary because it is a word that bothers us, it bothers us. Why? Because it requires you to look at another and give yourself to another with love (Pope Francis, 2013).” By practicing solidarity, from the heart of the Church, we are able to work in the public sector and transcend the cultural, political, social, and geographic differences that separate people in an effort to see persons as God sees them. As we encounter persons in the private or public sector in a clinical or service capacity, we grow in solidarity if we see them as persons to be loved. Likewise, from an administrative or policy standpoint, we are provided opportunities to practice the virtue of solidarity and create systems and structures which facilitate the growth in holiness, virtue, and a more holistic view of the dignity of each human person.SubsidiarityThe companion principle to solidarity is the principle of subsidiarity. Subsidiarity can be defined a couple of different ways. The best definition, in my estimation, is this: the best decision is made at the lowest possible level and the highest level necessary. Put another way: any activity that can be performed by a more decentralized entity should be.The principle of subsidiarity comes into play on every level of analysis. We can look at the interplay of the family in a community. Or we can investigate the proper balance between a regional government and a national government. On the level of the State, subsidiarity dictates that the State should not do things which belong properly to the capacity of individuals or private associations operating independently of the State. Again, subsidiarity means that the best decision is made at the lowest level possible and the highest level necessary.We should be careful not to simply see subsidiarity as a conservative/traditional principle that seeks to limit the power of the State. Instead, subsidiarity sets limits on the State but it also justifies the existence of the State. The highest level necessary sometimes means that a national or federal level of oversight is necessary. Think, for example, of the existence of border security, military administration, or policies regarding national patriotism. So, the State is necessary, but it needs to be rightly limited to only those actions necessary to be administered at that level.The heart of the principle of subsidiarity is human dignity. As Pope Benedict XVI beautifully teaches:“Subsidiarity respects personal dignity by recognizing in the person a subject who is always capable of giving something to others. By considering reciprocity as the heart of what it is to be a human being, subsidiarity is the most effective antidote against any form of all-encompassing welfare state (Caritas in veritate, 57).”If we do not allow decisions to be made at the proper level, then power will be exercised in a foolish way on the one hand or in a tyrannical fashion on the other hand. Though the effects of globalization have yielded some fruits on the international stage, there is still a threat of a “dangerous universal power of a tyrannical nature,” to borrow a phrase of Pope Benedict XVI. He acknowledges there should be sufficient global authority to pursue the global common good, but, most importantly, “[t]his authority, however, must be organized in a subsidiary and stratified way, if it is not to infringe upon freedom and if it is to yield effective results in practice (Caritas in veritate, 57).”Pope Pius XI, in 1931, wrote of this reciprocal nature when he said: “The supreme authority of the State ought, therefore, to let subordinate groups handle matters and concerns of lesser importance, which would otherwise dissipate its efforts greatly. Thereby the State will more freely, powerfully, and effectively to do all those things that belong to it alone because it alone can do them: directing, watching, urging, restraining, as occasion requires and necessity demands (Quadragesimo Anno, 80).” The State cannot, however, be all-encompassing and tyrannical, unjustly limiting individual autonomy. In the Second World Meeting of Popular Movements in 2015, Pope Francis said this: “No actual or established power has the right to deprive peoples of the full exercise of their sovereignty (Pope Francis, 2015).”If we do not heed the Church's sage understanding of subsidiarity, then the State will begin to provide everything, even those things best left to a lower level or strata of society. This would inevitably become a mere bureaucracy which can never guarantee the thing needed most by those who are suffering: loving personal concern. As Pope Benedict XVI writes in his encyclical on love:“We do not need a State which regulates and controls everything, but a State which, in accordance with the principle of subsidiarity, generously acknowledges and supports initiatives arising from the different social forces and combines spontaneity with closeness to those in need (Deus Caritas Est, 28).”Solidarity and SubsidiaritySolidarity and subsidiarity come together as a pair or neither are assured. If we have subsidiarity without solidarity, then we have what Pope Benedict XVI calls “social privatism.” In this situation, the individual is free to operate as they will but with no regard for his fellow man. This does not serve the common good. On the other hand, if we have solidarity but not subsidiarity, then we have what Pope Benedict calls “paternalist social assistance that is demeaning to those in need (Caritas in veritate, 58).”In 1961, Pope St. John XXIII wrote clearly that “Experience has shown that where personal initiative is lacking, political tyranny ensues and, in addition, economic stagnation in the production of a wide range of consumer goods and of services of the material and spiritual order (Mater et Magistra, 57).”This paternalist social assistance could also be called a Social Assistance State or Welfare State. Such a society deprives individuals of personal responsibility. The Social Assistance State, says Pope St. John Paul II, “... leads to a loss of human energies and an inordinate increase of public agencies, which are dominated more by bureaucratic ways of thinking than by concern for serving their clients, and which are accompanied by an enormous increase in spending. In fact, it would appear that needs are best understood and satisfied by people who are closest to them and who act as neighbours to those in need (Centesimus Annus, 48).”The lesson here is an incredibly practical one. For those involved in the public or private sectors alike, we must view people as persons with true value. We need to work towards the common good and ensure that we are keeping subsidiarity and solidarity operative. If we are to avoid tyranny then we must put subsidiarity into practice. If we are to avoid a privatism devoid of charity, then we must put solidarity into practice!For further reading, check the Compendium of Social Doctrine of the Church from the Pontifical Council for Justice and Peace.or Peter Kwasniewski's book A Reader in Catholic Social Teaching.Will Wright Catholic Podcast is a reader-supported publication.

The entire Old Testament looks forward to and is a foreshadowing of the New. Everything is a prefiguration of the New Testament, the Jews were in expectation of the coming of the Messiah. The way for the Messiah was prepared by the numerous prophecies and penultimately by St. John the Baptist. St. John is the greatest of the Old Testament prophets, he is the personification of the entire Old Testament, of the law, of the Prophets, the priesthood, the kings, the sacrifices and everything God did in the Old covenant in order to prepare the Jews for the Messiahs. Advent commemorates that time of humanity, a full 4000 years, when there was no Savior, no Blessed Sacrament, no Penance, no Sacrifice of the Mass -there was only hope. Today the Church rejoices because the Lord is near, this joy has a spiritual and mystical sense. The Lord is near us, this gives us the joy of possessing God in our souls through sanctifying grace. The spiritual joys for which the world affords are so impoverished and fleeting that the soul knows only momentary happiness. The Soul finds itself in a constant state of seeking and not finding. The thing to do is to be more detached from the world and more attached to God. Join us on this episode of In Veritate.

Our ability to do good is paralyzed if we do not deny ourselves. Praying is a great example of self-denial. Our sensual nature is opposed to prayer – it does not please the softness of the body. Unless we mortify our senses and evil inclinations, we become incapable of good. Saints achieved such great heights of virtue due to severe mortifications they practiced. By doing this, they removed all obstacles to the working of the grace of God within them. We must have a holy detestation of this world and prove our love of God by putting aside the world and turning our hearts to Him. Join us on this episode of In Veritate.

Those who are prideful practice virtue only for worldly esteem. God rewards such virtues only with the good things of this world. These are good only in appearance in as much as they are merely created images of the eternal good. The highest degree of humility is not only to acknowledge our own abjection but to love it and to take delight in it. Not from meanness from soul or cowardice of heart, but from a desire to exalt as we ought the divine majesty and to prefer others far before ourselves. When we say there is a struggle between the spirit and the flesh, between grace and nature, we must understand that flesh and nature should not be understood as what God made: perfection. Instead we are speaking of flesh and nature as stained and wounded by original sin and thus tends towards the commission of evil. Even though we are wounded by original sin, we are still masters of ourselves, we have free will, and with the help of God we can persevere in virtue. Join us on this episode of In Veritate.

This modern world has produced a highly immoral standard of living in regards to dress, modesty, and culture. What is the Catholic response – the response we should take? The true Catholic should obtain his/her standards not from the world's view, but apply the standards that are set by the Catholic Church. Secondly, the Church rests upon the foundation of Saint Peter which we know because of Jesus's pronouncement. From this fact we must conclude that any institution or society of Christians which professes to be the true Church of Christ is not the true Church of Christ for the unique reason: it is detached from the succession of Saint Peter. We must also conclude that the profession of the Catholic Faith (public adherence to all of its dogmas and public repudiation of all that the Church considers to be heretical) is an absolute condition of papal power.

The family is the true Catholic school – where children learn how to be Catholics. The Catholic religion is the only religion which maintains that marriage is indissoluble. Bishop Sanborn discusses the characteristics of the Holy Family that we should apply to our families as well as things we should avoid in our families. Join us on this episode of In Veritate.

There is only one true God and He is the head of the Catholic Church. In order to be attached to Christ, one must be attached and submitted to the Catholic Church. The profession of the true faith is a prerequisite for the reception and the retention of authority within the Catholic Church. This is for two reasons: 1. The profession of faith is necessary for membership in the Catholic Church (at baptism, the sponsors answer for the baby that he/she believes in Catholic teachings). 2. The primary role of authority in the Church is to protect the Catholic faith. Secondly, there is no Church by which we can be saved except the Catholic Church. This is a teaching of Christ, Himself.

By His Resurrection, Christ proved He is truly the Son of God and therefore has the same nature as God. This silences all arguments against Our Lord. It silences all rationalists, all atheists, all agnostics, and all pagans. To gain eternal life we must believe in God and obey His will. For to be against Him would be to embrace eternal death. Bishop Sanborn then takes us through the past events of Holy Week and Our Lord's Passion, for these events should be remembered and present in our minds, even after Lent and Easter.

All may be judged who have not believed the truth. God will permit humans to sink into terrible error, and then come and judge them because they did not believe the truth, but have consented to iniquity. This is a teaching of Saint Paul. Bishop Sanborn discusses the consequences of Vatican II and the current status of our times regarding the Anti-Christ and the prophesies.

Patience is a bearing of evil in order that a greater good come about or in order that a greater evil be avoided. Patience and tolerance of sinners is prudent when it is in the hope of converting others. Anger, the opposite of patience, is usually sinful. Though, there is justified anger provided it is in accordance with reason. Patience with the faults is not always a virtue. It is, sometimes, necessary to use anger in order to correct faults or in order to assure the common good. Secondly, Bishop Sanborn discusses the feast of the Epiphany and how the three kings were in search for truth and spiritual gain. We all thirst for truth. The human mind constantly craves for information. There are a set of ultimate truths in our minds which direct everything. Let us be like the Magi and search for and love truth in this era of ignorance. Join us on this episode of In Veritate.

Écoutez la Parole de Dieu ! Voici l'Évangile du mercredi 8 décembre 2021. Texte de l'Association Épiscopale Liturgique pour les pays Francophones.

L'ange entra chez elle et dit : « Je te salue, Comblée-de-grâce, le Seigneur est avec toi. » À cette parole, elle fut toute bouleversée, et elle se demandait ce que pouvait signifier cette salutation. L'ange lui dit alors : « Sois sans crainte, Marie, car tu as trouvé grâce auprès de Dieu. Voici que tu vas concevoir et enfanter un fils ; tu lui donneras le nom de Jésus. Il sera grand, il sera appelé Fils du Très-Haut ; le Seigneur Dieu lui donnera le trône de David son père ; il régnera pour toujours sur la maison de Jacob, et son règne n'aura pas de fin. » Marie dit à l'ange : « Comment cela va-t-il se faire, puisque je ne connais pas d'homme ? » L'ange lui répondit : « L'Esprit Saint viendra sur toi, et la puissance du Très-Haut te prendra sous son ombre ; c'est pourquoi celui qui va naître sera saint, il sera appelé Fils de Dieu. Or voici que, dans sa vieillesse, Élisabeth, ta parente, a conçu, elle aussi, un fils et en est à son sixième mois, alors qu'on l'appelait la femme stérile. Car rien n'est impossible à Dieu. » Marie dit alors : « Voici la servante du Seigneur ; que tout m'advienne selon ta parole. » Alors l'ange la quitta. – Acclamons la Parole de Dieu.  

En este episodio conversamos con Julio y Claudio creadores del Podcast De Veritate, en este episodio reflexionamos sobre el buen vivir, la felicidad y la amistad, como parte de una vida feliz. Para Aristóteles la amistad (philia) es una VIRTUD porque es lo más necesario para la vida “nadie querría vivir sin amigos, aun teniendo todas las demás cosas buenas”. ... Por eso el hombre feliz necesita amigos. Filosofía de vida es una expresión que se refiere a los principios, valores e ideas que rigen el estilo de vida de una persona o de un grupo y orientan su comportamiento en busca de la autorrealización.

This time, the shownotes are going to be much more like a works cited page and less a description. This is in part because we've got a newborn to tend to, and in part because Jacob and I referenced a lot of things. But as a general overview, Joseph read the book Rich Dad Poor Dad recently, and started talking to Jacob over the phone about some ideas related to both that book and Catholic social teaching, and then asked Jacob if he'd hold his thoughts for a few days so we could record them. And here we are!Rich Dad Poor Dad by Robert KiyosakiThe Science of Getting Rich by Wallace WattlesRerum Novarum by Pope Leo XIII-- this is the one Jacob recommended everyone read and Joseph seconds that ideaCaritas in Veritate by Pope Benedict XVINov. 18 2018 General Audience with Pope FrancisLaborem Exercens by Pope John Paul IIGetting Naked by Patrick LencioniLinchpin: Are You Indispensable? by Seth GodinAnd then another good intro to the idea of subsidiarity: https://www.usccb.org/beliefs-and-teachings/what-we-believe/catholic-social-teaching/solidarity

Host Chris Motz is joined this week by Dr. Chad Pecknold, professor of theology at Catholic University of America (and prolific tweeter -- @ccpecknold). Chris tosses a listener question to the good professor: What, according to the Church, is the purpose of government? What's it's aim, its end, its goal? Also, what are the limits of its action? Or, asking an obvious question that comes from from Matthew 22 and Mark 12 ("Render unto Caeasar..."), what belongs to "Caesar" and what belongs to God? (Spoiler for the latter: everything, including the former.) Chris and Professor Pecknold dig into some contemporary issues, e.g., gender ideology, as they unpack how "the state" can fulfill its essential nature and purpose. A few links to resources that come up in the conversation: https://www.amazon.com/Christianity-Politics-History-Cascade-Companions/dp/1556352425 (Christianity and Politic)s, authored by Prof. Pecknold https://www.vatican.va/content/benedict-xvi/en/encyclicals/documents/hf_ben-xvi_enc_20090629_caritas-in-veritate.html (Caritas in Veritate), a social encyclical touching heavily on economics and government, written by Pope Benedict XVI

In this episode, Malcolm Schluenderfritz and Jason Wilde draw on a wide range of Catholic sources to explain the basic principles of Catholic Social Teaching. We’ve included the sources we’ve quoted below. What is Catholic Social Teaching? Catholic Social Teaching (CST) is often misunderstood. When it is brought up, people can be quick to think of economics . . . or of socialism! It is also a complicated topic and isn’t discussed enough. Humans are social beings. CST is the Church’s teaching on our social interactions. We’re called to live with justice and charity toward our neighbors. The Beatitudes and the Works of Mercy can help us to understand CST, which can be seen as the Works of Mercy applied to society. Justice and Charity Without justice, charity is useless. We’d be highly offended if somebody stole our possessions, and then claimed to be charitable when they gave a few of them back! Too often, Christians focus on personal charity but ignore the aspect of justice. The teaching of the Church, going all the way back to St. John Chrysostom, is that feeding the poor is a matter of justice, not merely of charity. We can also see the works of mercy, the acts of charity, as personal responses to failures of social justice. We have to personally aid the poor, but the Church’s CST also provides us with the tools to analyze and combat wider social injustices. Framing aid to the needy as a matter of justice rather than charity can be uncomfortable. We all instinctively realize that while even a small amount of charity is laudable, falling even a little short of what justice requires is reprehensible. Instead of feeling uncomfortable, we should take this opportunity to realize our need for a Savior. Only Jesus can save us from the web of evil in the world. We are all somewhat unjust on this side of Heaven. The Principles of Catholic Social Teaching All the CST principles are tightly interwoven. They each depend on the others; if we drop one or two of them the others don’t make sense. The Rights of Workers The rights of workers are tightly connected to the dignity of every human person, but they are also connected to the dignity of work itself. Through work, we can participate in God’s ongoing act of creation. Work needs to be properly oriented, both to sustaining those who perform it, and ultimately toward leisure. All work is for the sake of not working. It can be difficult to remember this in a culture with a deeply flawed view of work. Human Rights and Responsibilities All humans have certain basic rights; most fundamentally, the right to life, and to the basic necessities for living a good human life, such as food, shelter, clothing, basic medical care, and adequate rest. Every right comes paired with a responsibility. In the case of basic human rights, society and individual human beings have a responsibility to make sure that the rights of others are met. In our individual lives, we can’t let a focus on our own rights blur a realization of our duties toward others, and we should be willing to waive our lesser rights so that the more fundamental rights of others can be honored. The Preferential Option for the Poor and Vulnerable We all have rights, but the Church calls us to have a special concern for the poor and vulnerable. In part, this is just pragmatic; the poor and vulnerable are more likely to “fall through the cracks” unless they are given special attention. But it is also part of the Gospel Message. Christ said he came to bring good news to the poor. Poverty does not equal virtue, but it does help to prepare one’s heart to encounter Christ. (We discussed this in our episode on Gospel Poverty.) Solidarity Solidarity calls us to see all human beings as brothers and sisters. This has a natural dimension, but above all it has a spiritual dimension. We are called to see every other human being as created in the image and likeness of God, and as at least potential members of the Mystical Body of Christ. This means that we should care deeply about what happens to every human person, much as we would care about the members of our families or the members of our own bodies. The Dignity of the Human Person All CST is ultimately grounded in the Dignity of the Human Person. Every human being has this dignity from conception to natural death, which is why the Catholic Church opposed abortion and all other attacks on life. If we don’t believe in the fundamental dignity that each person has, we won’t see any reason to respect human rights, stand in solidarity with others, value human work, or care for those who are poor. The Call to Family, Community, and Participation But we are not just individuals; we are communal, and therefore we are called to seek the Common Good. Common Goods are those things which are not diminished by being shared. The ultimate common good is the contemplation of God in Heaven; this good is not diminished by being shared. Neither is the good of belonging to a family or community. Care for Creation As a community, we need to care for our common home and the common goods provided by Creation. This will the theme of our next CST episode, which will be an in-depth discussion of Laudato Si. Practical Applications On our website we have a list titled “101 Ways to Change Your Life Right Now!” If you want to start putting CST into practice, this list might be a good place to start. We’re not yet at 101, but we have more than 60 action items listed. (Contact us if you have any suggestions to add to the list.) Resources This is a list of most if not all of the sources we quoted during the episode (and some that we didn’t get time to quote!) with links to the originals where relevant. Text in bold before each section of quoted text was added by us to indicate the connection to our discussion in the episode. These sources come from different eras and help to show the unity of CST over time. Evangelium Vitae by Pope St. John Paul II Section 3: The Dignity of Every Human Life. “Every individual, precisely by reason of the mystery of the Word of God who was made flesh (cf. Jn 1:14), is entrusted to the maternal care of the Church. Therefore every threat to human dignity and life must necessarily be felt in the Church’s very heart; it cannot but affect her at the core of her faith in the Redemptive Incarnation of the Son of God, and engage her in her mission of proclaiming the Gospel of life in all the world and to every creature (cf. Mk 16:15) . . . .The Second Vatican Council, in a passage which retains all its relevance today, forcefully condemned a number of crimes and attacks against human life. Thirty years later, taking up the words of the Council and with the same forcefulness I repeat that condemnation in the name of the whole Church, certain that I am interpreting the genuine sentiment of every upright conscience: “Whatever is opposed to life itself, such as any type of murder, genocide, abortion, euthanasia, or wilful self-destruction, whatever violates the integrity of the human person, such as mutilation, torments inflicted on body or mind, attempts to coerce the will itself; whatever insults human dignity, such as subhuman living conditions, arbitrary imprisonment, deportation, slavery, prostitution, the selling of women and children; as well as disgraceful working conditions, where people are treated as mere instruments of gain rather than as free and responsible persons; all these things and others like them are infamies indeed. They poison human society, and they do more harm to those who practise them than to those who suffer from the injury. Moreover, they are a supreme dishonour to the Creator”” Let Us Dream, by Pope Francis pp. 52-53: Catholic Social Teaching is based on the Beatitudes. “Jesus gave us a set of keywords with which he summoned up the grammar of the Kingdom of God: the Beatitudes. They begin in the hope of the poor for the fullness of life, for peace and fraternity, for equity and justice. It is an order of existence in which values are not negotiated but sacrosanct. Reflecting on the kingdom of God in response to the way we live in the modern world, the Church has developed a series of principles for reflection, together with criteria for judgment that also offer directives for action. It is known as Catholic Social Teaching. While they are drawn from reflection on the Gospel, its principles are accessible to all, seeking to translate and set in motion the Good News in the here and now. “ pp. 116-117 The Dignity of Workers “There is a 12th-century midrash, or commentary, on the story of the Tower of Babel in chapter 11 of the Book of Genesis. The tower was a monument to the ego of the people of Babel. Building the tower required huge numbers of bricks, which were very expensive to make. According to the rabbi, if a brick fell it was a great tragedy: work was stopped and the negligent worker was beaten severely as an example. But if a worker fell to his death? the work went on. One of the surplus laborers—slaves waiting in line for work—stepped forward to take his place so that the tower could continue to rise . . .And nowadays? When shares of major corporations fall a few percent, the news makes headlines. Experts endlessly discuss what it might mean. But when a homeless person is found frozen in the streets behind empty hotels, or a whole population goes hungry, few notice; and if it makes the news at all, we just shake our heads sadly and carry on, believing there is no solution . . .Either a society is geared to a culture of sacrifice—the triumph of the fittest and the throwaway culture—or to mercy and care. People or bricks: it is time to choose.” Caritas in Veritate, by Pope Benedict XVI From paragraph 6: The Relation of Charity and Justice. “Charity goes beyond justice, because to love is to give, to offer what is “mine” to the other; but it never lacks justice, which prompts us to give the other what is “his”, what is due to him by reason of his being or his acting. I cannot “give” what is mine to the other, without first giving him what pertains to him in justice. If we love others with charity, then first of all we are just towards them. Not only is justice not extraneous to charity, not only is it not an alternative or parallel path to charity: justice is inseparable from charity, and intrinsic to it.” Apostolicam Actuositatem, from the Second Vatican Council From Chapter II, Section 8: The Relation of Justice and Charity, Solidarity in Christ, Reform of the Social Order. “In order that the exercise of charity on this scale may be unexceptionable in appearance as well as in fact, it is altogether necessary that one should consider in one’s neighbor the image of God in which he has been created, and also Christ the Lord to Whom is really offered whatever is given to a needy person. It is imperative also that the freedom and dignity of the person being helped be respected with the utmost consideration, that the purity of one’s charitable intentions be not stained by seeking one’s own advantage or by striving for domination, and especially that the demands of justice be satisfied lest the giving of what is due in justice be represented as the offering of a charitable gift. Not only the effects but also the causes of these ills must be removed and...

Sofia and Giuliana discuss subsidiarity, a principle of Catholic Social Teaching. What is subsidiarity and how is it commonly misunderstood? Can Catholic Social Teaching free us from ideology and partisan politics? What invitation does the principle of subsidiarity pose to each one of us? What gifts come from obeying it, both personally and socially? Our weekly challenge is to donate to a local organization. And our media recommendation is the book Hannah Coulter by Wendell Berry.

Our heroes try to find their way in the wake of the bombing of Veritate and each gets a surprise visit, some less welcome than others. But they don't have much time to sort out their feeling as another threat falls into their laps. Cernunnos gets an offer he can refuse, Enif makes herself cozy at Baerin's cabin, Baerin runs into a familiar face under the lamplight, and Isaac has a vision of a Pizza Salon. Recorded on 12-23-20

¡AYYYYY, no saben lo orgullosa que estoy de este episodio! Me llevó muchas horas de investigación y un buen rato de meditación, además de las buenas horas de grabación y edición (jaja pero esas van de cajón). La verdad estoy súper feliz de compartir con ustedes de este tema tan tan tan importante, el descanso. La iglesia tiene una óptica muy hermosa con respecta a el ser humano y nuestra vida  aquí en la tierra. Hoy, compartimos un poco acerca de nuestro descanso y tocamos desde el dormir hasta el descanso propio del domingo. Espero este episodio pueda serte de mucha bendición y pueda traer luz a tu vida. Te dejo algunas citas hermosísimas de las que te platico en el episodio y sobre las que puedes meditar: "El amor de la verdad busca el santo ocio, la necesidad del amor cultiva el justo trabajo." San Agustín "Si el Señor no construye la casa en vano trabajan los albañiles; si el Señor no protege la ciudad, en vano vigila el centinela. En vano te levantas tan temprano  y te acuestas tan tarde, y con tanto sudor comes tu pan; el lo da a sus amigos mientras duermen." Salmo 127:1-2 "Mientras el mundo ve el fin de semana como un tiempo para prepararse para ir a trabajar el lunes, la Iglesia ve la semana de trabajo como una preparación para la Eucaristía de domingo." CIC "Sin la perspectiva de una vida eterna, el progreso humano en este mundo se queda sin aliento. Encerrado dentro de la historia, queda expuesto al riesgo de reducirse solo al incremento de tener; así. la humanidad pierde la valentía de estar disponible  para los bienes más altos." Papa Benedicto XVI en la Encíclica "Caritas in Veritate" Las quiero y espero estén resguardándose en estos tiempo. No olviden seguirnos en instagram como @lumenmultimedia y @befreymann.

TESTO DELL'ARTICOLO ➜http://www.bastabugie.it/it/articoli.php?id=6007SPAGNA, PUZZA DI REGIME: NON PUOI PENSARE DIVERSAMENTE DAL GOVERNO di Raffaella Frullone«Non possiamo pensare in alcun modo che i figli appartengano ai genitori». Non si può certo dire che non sia stata chiara Isabel Celaá, ministro dell'Istruzione dell'esecutivo spagnolo guidato dal socialista Pedro Sánchez. La Celaá ha rilasciato questa dichiarazione durante una conferenza stampa in cui criticava l'adozione del cosiddetto «Pin parentale» da parte del governo della regione di Murcia per iniziativa del partito Vox. Si tratta di una sorta di consenso informato che permette alle famiglie di esercitare il primato educativo e dunque fornire o meno l'autorizzazione rispetto alle attività scolastiche complementari.«Il Pin parentale viola il diritto fondamentale e costituzionale dei bambini e dei giovani a essere educati - ha dichiarato il ministro Celaá - e dunque non può essere accettato. Viola inoltre l'autonomia del centro educativo». Nel caso il messaggio non fosse abbastanza chiaro, le ha fatto eco Irene Montero, ministro spagnolo per l'Uguaglianza, che ha ribadito: «I figli di genitori omofobi hanno il diritto di essere educati al rispetto» e sulla «possibilità di "amare chi vogliono"». Secondo la Montero la decisione del governo della Múrcia «comporta la rottura del patto contro la violenza di genere».Ma se i figli non appartengono ai genitori bensì allo Stato, allora ci sono alcune cose che non tornano, come ha scritto in una lettera diventata virale María Teresa Corzo Santamaría, preside della Facoltà di Scienze economiche e commerciali della Pontificia Università di Comillas e madre di cinque figli.LETTERA APERTA AL MINISTRO DELL'ISTRUZIONE«Signora Celaá, sono la madre di cinque figli, lavoro ogni giorno all'università e spendo le mie energie quotidiane tra la cura dei miei figli e il lavoro e il pagamento di tutte le tasse allo Stato. Grazie al fatto che vivo nella Comunità di Madrid, ho qualche aiuto destinato alle famiglie numerose e per la disabilità di due dei miei figli. In altre comunità non va così bene. Ma mai nessuno di qualunque governo mi ha aiutato quando i miei figli si sono alzati di notte o quando sono stati malati, né alcuno mi ha aiutato quando sono stati ricoverati. Nessuno è corso a prendere uno dei nostri bambini a scuola mentre io o mio marito eravamo in ospedale con nostro figlio appena operato al cuore. Nessuno mi ha accompagnato nei controlli medici di mio figlio con la sindrome di Down. Solo le associazioni non governative senza scopo di lucro ci hanno offerto aiuto.Di questo "governo papà", nessun segno. Non vi ho visto signore e signori. Ma ora che il bambino è a scuola, guarda caso, ora volete essere voi "il padre", volete educarlo a modo vostro. E togliere la libertà di educazione ai genitori. Perché attenzione, cosa succede se la madre non pensa come il governo? Allora diciamo che non puoi pensare diversamente e basta. E se la signora Montero pensasse che la madre è pazza? O se la madre dice qualcosa che alle dee dell'Olimpo, custodi del bene, non piace? O peggio ancora, e se lo dicesse il padre? [...]Un'ultima domanda, dato che è filosofa e conosce i sillogismi. Se i bambini ora appartengono allo Stato totalitario del signor Sánchez e del signor Iglesias, allora appartengono anche allo Stato di Franco, quando Franco era al comando, giusto? E se il prossimo presidente del governo sarà il signor Abascal, i bambini di questo Paese apparterranno anche a lui, giusto? Dopo 17 anni dalla nascita di della mia figlia maggiore, molto lavoro, molti dottori, molte notti di sogni infranti e molte occhiaie, avevo solo bisogno di sentire questo insulto alle libertà e all'intelligenza. Ma ora le cose sono cambiate, i genitori non hanno più libertà. No, ora no, perché le dee hanno parlato».Nota di BastaBugie: Mauro Faverzani nell'articolo seguente dal titolo "Spagna verso il regime comunista, SOS della Chiesa" racconta la drammatica situazione spagnola.Ecco l'articolo completo pubblicato su Corrispondenza Romana il 29 gennaio 2020:«Abbiamo visto come il comunismo si è introdotto in Venezuela. Ed è quanto sta avvenendo ora in Spagna»: a lanciare l'allarme, dalle colonne del quotidiano Abc, sono state Eva Buitrago, 65enne di Santa Cruz, e Violeta Perdorno, 59enne di Caracas, entrambe esponenti dell'Associazione Pensionati venezuelana. Scorgono ora nel Paese iberico gli stessi germi, che hanno portato il marxismo al potere in Venezuela, a partire dall'era Maduro.E non sbagliano. A confermarlo autorevolmente in una lettera pastorale, è stato l'arcivescovo metropolita di Mérida-Badajoz, mons. Celso Morga Iruzibieta, che, dopo aver letto il programma del nuovo governo Psoe-Podemos, lo ha accusato senza mezzi termini di laicismo militante, pronto a rendersi «parte attiva nella rimozione totale di Dio dalla vita pubblica» e nell'«imporre l'ateismo pratico». Ciò cui il prelato oppone l'enciclica di Benedetto XVI Caritas in Veritate n. 29, laddove si legge in particolare: «Quando lo Stato promuove, insegna o addirittura impone forme di ateismo pratico, sottrae ai suoi cittadini la forza morale e spirituale indispensabile per impegnarsi nello sviluppo umano integrale».Non è un caso che il diritto dei genitori ad impartire ai figli un'educazione religiosa conforme alle proprie convinzioni sia stato definito dal neo-ministro per l'Educazione spagnolo, Isabel Celaá, del Partito Socialista Operaio, un «diritto accessorio». Ed, in base a tale assurdo pretesto, è pronta a trascinare la giunta regionale di Murcia in tribunale, accusandola d'aver violato il diritto all'istruzione, per aver dato «priorità ad un diritto accessorio» ovvero cercato di trattare tutte le materie allo stesso modo. È lo stesso ministro, che due mesi fa, dal palco del congresso delle Scuole cattoliche, negò che la Costituzione iberica garantisca ai genitori il diritto di scegliersi la scuola per i propri figli e tanto meno un'educazione religiosa.Il nuovo governo ha già mostrato, poco dopo il suo insediamento, un inquietante volto da regime. Contro cui si è già espresso pubblicamente anche il card. Antonio Cañizares Llovera, arcivescovo metropolita di Valencia: «Ciò che ha detto il ministro Celaá è una barbarie, è il più grande passo indietro che un governo possa fare - ha commentato -. Questo governo sta violando l'ordinamento giuridico spagnolo. I genitori hanno il dovere e la responsabilità di educare i propri figli e niente e nessuno glielo può togliere, tanto meno lo Stato», che deve rispondere all'esigenza di «garantire a tutti, soprattutto alla famiglia, di poter adempiere al proprio dovere educativo». Sua Eminenza ha bollato espressamente chi la pensi diversamente d'avere ancora la testa ai «gulag sovietici ed alla cultura comunista».Nei giorni scorsi Txomin Gómez, responsabile dell'Educazione nella Diocesi di Vitoria, ha denunciato a chiare lettere, in un'intervista rilasciata all'agenzia InfoCatólica, gli ostacoli amministrativi e le difficoltà opposte dagli istituti scolastici alle famiglie decise ad iscrivere i propri figli all'ora di religione. Non solo: il nuovo governo, spostato decisamente a Sinistra con l'accordo tra Partito Socialista Operaio e Unidas Podemos, già dai primi passi compiuti ha rivelato subito la propria vera natura, quella di lupo travestito da nonna di Cappuccetto Rosso: nella valutazione degli alunni l'ora di religione non farà più media; inoltre, chi non la frequenti, avrà semplicemente una materia in meno, non essendone più previste alternative educative; vietate le scuole che propongano un'istruzione differenziata in base al sesso, maldestramente ed ideologicamente definita una «segregazione educativa» (sic): chi non ha classi miste, può scordarsi di ricevere ancora soldi pubblici; verrà di contro potenziata nelle classi l'educazione «affettivo-sessuale», cavallo di Troia per inculcare una mentalità contraccettiva, abortista ed Lgbt-friendly alle nuove generazioni sin dalla più tenera età. Peggio di così...Sono tutti provvedimenti, che violano palesemente gli accordi vigenti tra Spagna e Santa Sede, accordi che prevedono per l'ora di religione condizioni assolutamente equiparabili a quelle delle altre materie. Invece no, d'ora in poi gli alunni si troveranno di fronte a professori di "serie A" (gli iperlaicisti) e professori di "serie B" o "C" o "D" (gli insegnanti di religione). Insomma, una cosa è certa: in Spagna il nuovo governo è appena nato, eppure già si sente puzza di regime.

Spoilers. The horn sounds, so you have been warned. We skip any sort of plot summary and assume you've seen the movie. Three themes of economic injustice, mental health, and isolation interweave into one amazing character study called JOKER. Economic Justice Wayne Employees (coming home from work) beat up the Joker (coming home from work) Chapter 3 of CARITAS IN VERITATE by Pope Benedict XVI FRATERNITY, ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AND CIVIL SOCIETY “In fact, if the market is governed solely by the principle of the equivalence in value of exchanged goods, it cannot produce the social cohesion that it requires in order to function well. Without internal forms of solidarity and mutual trust, the market cannot completely fulfil its proper economic function. And today it is this trust which has ceased to exist, and the loss of trust is a grave loss.” “In the global era, the economy is influenced by competitive models tied to cultures that differ greatly among themselves. The different forms of economic enterprise to which they give rise find their main point of encounter in commutative justice. Economic life undoubtedly requires contracts, in order to regulate relations of exchange between goods of equivalent value. But it also needs just laws and forms of redistribution governed by politics, and what is more, it needs works redolent of the spirit of gift. The economy in the global era seems to privilege the former logic, that of contractual exchange, but directly or indirectly it also demonstrates its need for the other two: political logic, and the logic of the unconditional gift. (Caritas in Veritate, 37) “My predecessor John Paul II drew attention to this question in Centesimus Annus, when he spoke of the need for a system with three subjects: the market, the State and civil society[92]. He saw civil society as the most natural setting for an economy of gratuitousness and fraternity, but did not mean to deny it a place in the other two settings. Today we can say that economic life must be understood as a multi-layered phenomenon: in every one of these layers, to varying degrees and in ways specifically suited to each, the aspect of fraternal reciprocity must be present.” - 38 Catholic Church on Mental Health “Christ took all human suffering on himself, even mental illness. Yes even this affliction, which perhaps seems the most absurd and incomprehensible, configures the sick person to Christ and gives him a share in his redeeming passion” Pope John Paul II, International Conference for Health Care Workers, on Illnesses of the Human Mind, November 30, 1996 “...stretch out a hand to the sick, to make them perceive the tenderness of God, to integrate them into a community of faith and life in which they can feel accepted, understood, supported, respected; in a word, in which they can love and be loved.” - John Paul II on Depression From the California Bishops : Catholic World Report Christ’s public life was a ministry of hope and healing. As Catholics, in imitation of our Lord, we are called to provide hope and healing to others,” they said. “We profess that every human life is sacred, that all people are created in the image and likeness of God and, therefore, a person’s dignity and worth cannot be diminished by any condition, including mental illness.” The bishops called the spike in mental illness, suicide, and drug overdoses a “heartbreaking” crisis, and urged Catholics to help end the social stigma for those seeking support and help in these areas of their lives. “Persons with mental illness often suffer in silence, hidden and unrecognized by others,” the bishops said. “We clearly proclaim that there is no shame in receiving a diagnosis of a psychiatric disorder. We affirm the need for education in our communities to remove the unjust prejudice and stigma often associated with mental illness,” they said. Instead, all Catholics should use their unique gifts and talents to help alleviate these problems and to accompany those who suffer, the bishops noted, whether by providing friendship, spiritual support, or professional support if appropriate.

Este programa es una continuación del anterior sobre la Carta Encíclica "Caritas in Veritate", de Benedicto XVI. Analizamos el capítulo tercero sobre el análisis del desarrollo económico y de la sociedad civil.

Comentamos el primer capítulo de la encíclica de Benedicto XVI: "Caritas in Veritate". Este primer capítulo hace una relectura de la encíclica "Populorum Progressio" de Pablo VI. “La segunda verdad es que el auténtico desarrollo del hombre concierne de manera unitaria a la totalidad de la persona en todas sus dimensiones. Sin la perspectiva de una vida eterna, el progreso humano en este mundo se queda sin aliento. Encerrado dentro de la historia, queda expuesto al riesgo de reducirse sólo al incremento del tener; así, la humanidad pierde la valentía de estar disponible para los bienes más altos, para las iniciativas grandes y desinteresadas que la caridad universal exige. El hombre no se desarrolla únicamente con sus propias fuerzas, así como no se le puede dar sin más el desarrollo desde fuera”.

During the Fall of '17, we worked through the American Solidarity Party Platform. We also explored what's involved in bringing our platform into "on the ground" politics.This week's agenda has two parts. First, we need to look at just what solidarity is, in the mind of the Church. Second, we need to discuss what solidarity means for our politics.Let's begin with a few passages from Pope Francis, Pope Benedict XVI, and St. John Paul II.In the present condition of global society, where injustices abound and growing numbers of people are deprived of basic human rights and considered expendable, the principle of the common good immediately becomes, logically and inevitably, a summons to solidarity and a preferential option for the poorest of our brothers and sisters. This option entails recognizing the implications of the universal destination of the world's goods, but, as I mentioned in the Apostolic Exhortation Evangelii Gaudium, it demands before all else an appreciation of the immense dignity of the poor in the light of our deepest convictions as believers. We need only look around us to see that, today, this option is in fact an ethical imperative essential for effectively attaining the common good. (Pope Francis, On Care for Our Common Home [Laudato Si. . . '],no. 158)To love someone is to desire that person's good and to take effective steps to secure it. Besides the good of the individual, there is the good that is linked to living in society: the common good. It is the good of "all of us", made up of individuals, families and intermediate groups who together constitute society. … To desire the common good and strive towards it is a requirement of justice and charity. (Pope Benedict XVI, Charity in Truth [Caritas in Veritate. . . ], no. 7) At another level, the roots of the contradiction between the solemn affirmation of human rights and their tragic denial in practice lies in a notion of freedom which exalts the isolated individual in an absolute way, and gives no place to solidarity, to openness to others and service of them. . . It is precisely in this sense that Cain's answer to the Lord's question: "Where is Abel your brother?" can be interpreted: "I do not know; am I my brother's keeper?" (Gen 4:9). Yes, every man is his "brother's keeper", because God entrusts us to one another. (St. John Paul II, The Gospel of Life [Evangelium Vitae], no. 19)Next let's turn to the political arena. We can do so with an update on three Solidarity candidates in California. No shows were recorded or aired on December 22 or December 29, 2017.

Let's first explore, from a Catholic perspective, the significance of work. We can take our lead from Francis, Benedict, and St. John Paul II. Not surprisingly, our thoughts will turn to what might be involved in a politics of work!Work should be the setting for this rich personal growth, where many aspects of life enter into play: creativity, planning for the future, developing our talents, living out our values, relating to others, giving glory to God. It follows that, in the reality of today's global society, it is essential that "we continue to prioritize the goal of access to steady employment for everyone," no matter the limited interests of business and dubious economic reasoning. We were created with a vocation to work. The goal should not be that technological progress increasingly replace human work, for this would be detrimental to humanity. Work is a necessity, part of the meaning of life on this earth, a path to growth, human development and personal fulfillment. Helping the poor financially must always be a provisional solution in the face of pressing needs. The broader objective should always be to allow them a dignified life through work. (Pope Francis, On Care for Our Common Home [Laudato Si. . . '], nos. 127-28) In many cases, poverty results from a violation of the dignity of human work, either because work opportunities are limited (through unemployment or underemployment), or "because a low value is put on work and the rights that flow from it, especially the right to a just wage and to the personal security of the worker and his or her family." (Pope Benedict XVI, Charity in Truth [Caritas in Veritate.], no. 63)The obligation to earn one's bread by the sweat of one's brow also presumes the right to do so. A society in which this right is systematically denied, in which economic policies do not allow workers to reach satisfactory levels of employment, cannot be justified from an ethical point of view, nor can that society attain social peace. (St. John Paul II, The Hundredth Year [Centesimus Annus], no. 43)Work is a good thing for man-a good thing for his humanity--because through work man not only transforms nature, adapting it to his own needs, but he also achieves fulfillment as a human being and indeed, in a sense, becomes "more a human being.” (St. John Paul II, On Human Work [Laborem Exercens.], no. 9)Let's, secondly, get our weekly update on the trials and triumphs of the American Solidarity Party!

El Papa Francisco, en un mensaje enviado al Foro Económico Mundial de Davos, invita a tener un enfoque inclusivo que tenga en cuenta la dignidad de toda persona humana y el bien común. “Confiando en que este encuentro brinde una oportunidad para una reflexión más profunda sobre las causas de la crisis económica que sacude al mundo en los últimos años”, escribe el Papa en su mensaje al presidente ejecutivo del Foro económico mundial, Profesor Klaus Schwab, donde aporta algunas consideraciones con la esperanza de que puedan enriquecer los debates del Foro de Davos y “dar una contribución útil a su importante labor”. En la edición 2014 de la reunión anual del Foro Económico Mundial, que comenzó este miércoles en Davos, Suiza, participan cerca de 40 jefes de Estado y de Gobierno. En total más 2.500 participantes procedentes de casi 100 países, entre los que se incluyen más de 1.500 líderes empresariales de las mil compañías que forman parte del Foro, además de representantes de organizaciones internacionales, la sociedad civil, los medios de comunicación, la educación y las artes. El Foro Económico Mundial fue fundado en 1971 por Klaus Schwab, profesor de economía de Suiza, quien ha asegurado que este año el encuentro se produce con el mundo en un "momento crítico", ya que la reducción de crisis económicas en el corto plazo da lugar a la necesidad "profunda" de nuevas reformas estructurales en los mercados emergentes. El texto completo del Santo Padre es el siguiente: Mensaje del Papa al Foro de Davos: Al Profesor Klaus Schwab Presidente ejecutivo del Foro económico mundial Le agradezco mucho su amable invitación para dirigirme a la reunión anual del Foro Económico Mundial, que, como de costumbre, se celebrará en Davos- Klosters, a final del mes. Confiando en que este encuentro brinde una oportunidad para una reflexión más profunda sobre las causas de la crisis económica que sacude al mundo en los últimos años, quisiera aportar algunas consideraciones con la esperanza de que puedan enriquecer los debates del Foro y dar una contribución útil a su importante labor. La nuestra, es una época de grandes cambios y avances significativos en diversas áreas, y esto tiene consecuencias importantes para la vida humana. Efectivamente "son de alabar los avances que contribuyen al bienestar de la gente, como, por ejemplo, en el ámbito de la salud, de la educación y de la comunicación” (Evangelii Gaudium, 52), así como en muchos otros sectores de la actividad humana, y hay que reconocer el papel fundamental desempeñado por la economía moderna en estos cambios, a la hora de fomentar y desarrollar los recursos inmensos de la inteligencia humana. Sin embargo, los objetivos logrados -aunque hayan reducido la pobreza de un gran número de personas - a menudo han llevado aparejada una amplia exclusión social. De hecho, la mayor parte de los hombres y mujeres de nuestro tiempo siguen experimentando la inseguridad cotidiana, y no raramente con consecuencias trágicas. Con respecto a vuestra reunión, me gustaría hacer hincapié en la importancia que tienen los distintos sectores políticos y económicos en la promoción de un enfoque inclusivo que tenga en cuenta la dignidad de toda persona humana y el bien común. Me refiero a la atención que debería plasmar cualquier decisión política y económica, pero que, de momento, parece ser poco más que un replanteamiento. Los que trabajan en estos sectores tienen una responsabilidad precisa para con los demás, especialmente con los más frágiles, débiles y vulnerables. Es intolerable que todavía miles de personas mueran cada día de hambre, a pesar de las grandes cantidades de alimentos disponibles y, a menudo, simplemente desperdiciados. Del mismo modo, no pueden dejar de impresionarnos los innumerables refugiados que buscando condiciones de vida con un mínimo de dignidad, no sólo no consiguen encontrar hospitalidad, sino que a menudo mueren trágicamente mientras se desplazan de un lugar a otro. Sé que estas son palabras fuertes, incluso dramáticas, pero al mismo tiempo quieren reafirmar y desafiar la capacidad de este Foro para marcar la diferencia. De hecho, los que han demostrado la capacidad para innovar y mejorar la vida de muchas personas a través de su creatividad y experiencia profesional, pueden ofrecer una contribución adicional poniendo sus capacidades al servicio de los que aún viven en medio de una terrible pobreza. Hace falta, por lo tanto, un renovado, profundo y amplio sentido de responsabilidad por parte de todos. “La vocación de un empresario es una noble tarea, siempre que se deje interpelar por un sentido más amplio de la vida” (Evangelii Gaudium , 203). De este modo, los hombres y las mujeres pueden servir más eficazmente al bien común y hacer que los bienes del mundo sean más accesibles para todos. Sin embargo, el crecimiento de la igualdad requiere algo más que el crecimiento económico, aunque si lo presupone. Se requiere, en primer lugar, "una visión trascendente de la persona" (Benedicto XVI , Caritas in Veritate, 11 ), porque "sin la perspectiva de una vida eterna, el progreso humano en este mundo se queda sin aliento”. (Ibid). Además, necesita decisiones, mecanismos y procesos encaminados a una mejor distribución de la riqueza, la creación de fuentes de empleo y la promoción integral del pobre, que va más allá de una simple mentalidad de asistencia. Estoy convencido que una apertura tal a lo trascendente puede dar forma a una nueva mentalidad política y económica, capaz de reconducir toda la actividad económica y financiera dentro de un enfoque ético que sea verdaderamente humano. La comunidad económica internacional puede contar con muchos hombres y mujeres de gran honestidad e integridad personal, cuya labor se inspira y guía por nobles ideales de justicia, generosidad y atención por el auténtico desarrollo de la familia humana. Os exhorto a aprovechar estos grandes recursos humanos y morales, y a haceros cargo de este desafío con determinación y visión de futuro. Sin ignorar, por supuesto, los requisitos específicos, científicos y profesionales, de cada sector, os pido que os esforcéis para que la humanidad se sirva de la riqueza y no sea gobernada por ella. Estimado Presidente, queridos amigos espero que podáis ver en estas breves palabras un signo de mi atención pastoral y una aportación constructiva para que vuestra actividad sea siempre más noble y fecunda. Renuevo mis mejores deseos para el éxito de la reunión e invoco la bendición divina sobre vosotros y los participantes del Foro, así como sobre vuestras familias y vuestro trabajo.

Prof. Ford’s presentation will focus on three aspects: 1) the latest encyclical of Pope Benedict XIV "Caritas in Veritate"and its place in a long line of church statements on economic issues going back to Rerum Novarum [Leo XIII, 1891]; 2) how certain statements mirror structural change in economic systems [Quadragesimo Anno, 1931; Economic Justice For All, 1986; Caritas in Veritate, 2009]; and 3) criticism of these documents.
