Week 9: The Common Good

This section seeks to raise a greater awareness and understanding of the Church’s deep moral and social doctrine.

The Common Good
“Human beings too are creatures of this world, enjoying a right to life and happiness, and endowed with unique dignity. So we cannot fail to consider the effects on people’s lives of environmental deterioration, current models of development and the throwaway culture.” 
Pope Francis, Laudato Si, § 43, May 24, 2015
