Notes

“Applying the best insights from faith and reason takes us from surviving to thriving.”

"This likeness reveals that man, who is the only creature on earth which God willed for itself, cannot fully find himself except through a sincere gift of himself." Vatican II, Gaudium et Spes, 24

“Grace does not destroy nature but perfects it” St. Thomas Aquinas, Summa Theologiae, I 1.2.Ad2

“Doing the New Evangelization is a fruit of living the Theology of the Body.”

"since the inclination to the good of virtue is diminished in each individual on account of actual sin, [...], these four wounds [(ignorance, malice, weakness, concupiscence)] are also the result of other sins, in so far as, through sin, the reason is obscured, especially in practical matters, the will hardened to evil, good actions become more difficult and concupiscence more impetuous." St. Thomas Aquinas, Summa Theologiae, I-II 85.3
