Themes in Catholic Social Teaching
Most Catholics have
either forgotten or never known that the
Church has developed a body of teaching regarding the
cultural, economic, political and social aspects of society.
Although the social
teachings of the Church provide
neither a political platform nor a legislative agenda, these
guiding principles outline the vision of a just society.
Catholic social
teachings call people of faith to participate in
government as responsible citizens whose focus is to ensure
that the common good is addressed.
