Kirken og det politiske liv

”This is where Catholic social doctrine has its place: it has no intention of giving the church power over the State. Even less is it an attempt to impose on those who do not share the faith ways of thinking and modes of conduct proper to faith. Its aim is simply to help purify reason and to contribute, here and now, to the acknowledgment and attainment of what is just. The Church’s social teaching argues on the basis of reason and natural law, namely, on the basis of what is in accord with nature of every human being.” Pave Benedikt den 16., Deus Caritas Est, 28.
