A culture of life is a culture wherein the conviction finds its paradigmatic expression Church’s understanding of sexual and in the great text of the Second Vatican family ethics, the body and gender Council: “In reality it is only in the mystery difference, fatherhood and motherhood, of the Word made flesh that the mystery of filiation and fraternity, birth and death, find man truly becomes clear.

    ACTA PHILOSOPHICA, vol. 12 (2003), fasc. 2 - PAGG. 311-322 Philosophical Anthropology and Evangelium Vitae WILLIAM E. MAY* ■ The purpose of this presentation is to articulate the philosophical anthropolo- gy underlying the teaching of Pope John Paul II in his encyclical Evangelium vitae and to contrast this understanding of the human person with the philosoph- ical anthropology underlying the “culture of death.” I will begin by considering the anthropology at the heart of the culture of death, continue by offering a critique of this utterly false and dualistic under- standing of the human person and setting forth the key elements central to the realistic and integral anthropology at the heart of the teaching found in Evangelium vitae. 1. The Anthropology Underlying the Culture of Death John Paul II explicitly and accurately identifies this anthropology in the first chapter of Evangelium vitae, a chapter entitled Present-Day Threats to Human Life. In identifying this anthropology he likewise sketches the authentic anthro- pology of his encyclical. The Pope goes to the root causes of these threats, declar- ing that the culture of death has its roots in «the mentality which carries the con- cept of subjectivity to an extreme and even distorts it, and recognizes as a subject of rights only the person who enjoys full or at least incipient autonomy and who emerges from a state of total dependence on others» (no. 19). It is a mentality «which tends to equate personal dignity with the capacity for verbal and explic- it, or at least perceptible, communication» (no. 19). It is likewise rooted in a «notion of freedom which exalts the individual in an absolute way, and gives no * Michael J.

    N. 180625d Monday 25.06.2018 Press Conference for the presentation of the 24th General Assembly of the Pontifical Academy for Life (PAL) on “Global Bioethics” Intervention by H.E. Msgr. Vincenzo Paglia At 13.00 today, in the Holy See Press Office, a press conference was held for the presentation of the 24 th General Assembly of the Pontifical Academy for Life (PAL) on the theme “Equal beginnings. But then? A global responsibility”, which is taking place in the Vatican’s New Synod Hall from 25 to 27 June 2018. The speakers were H.E. Msgr. Vincenzo Paglia, president of the Pontifical Academy for life; Msgr. Renzo Pegoraro, chancellor of the same Pontifical Academy; and Dr. Sandra Azab, specialist in international health at the Saint Joseph Institute, Egypt. The following is the intervention by H.E. Msgr. Vincenzo Paglia: Intervention by H.E. Msgr. Vincenzo Paglia The months between the 2017 Assembly and the one we are inaugurating today – the 24th edition – have been particularly full for all of us and for the entire Academy. A great responsibility We have been given a great and exciting responsibility which calls for the active commitment of women and men of science, culture and the Church. The specification of being “for Life” places us at the service of the lives of the men and women of our time and none of these lives, starting with those of the poorest and most defenceless, can be lost, discarded or wasted. 2 In order for this service to be effective and concrete, we must face themes that demand a deep scientific understanding and a great knowledge of the human being: it is of little use to know in minute detail every aspect of living organisms without understanding the meaning of life and human existence.

  • The Holy See
    The Holy See APOSTOLIC LETTER ISSUED MOTU PROPRIO BY THE SUPREME PONTIFF FRANCIS SUMMA FAMILIAE CURA instituting the Pontifical John Paul II Theological Institute for Matrimonial and Family Science Inspired by his great care for the family, Saint John Paul II, following up the Synod of Bishops of 1980 on the Family and the Post-Synodal Apostolic Exhortation Familiaris consortio, of 1981, with the Apostolic Constitution Magnum Matrimonii Sacramentum, conferred stable legal form to the Pontifical John Paul II Institute for Studies on Marriage and Family, working at the Pontifical Lateran University. Since then, it has carried out fruitful work in theological study and pastoral formation both in its central campus in Rome and in its extra-urban Sections, now present on all the continents. More recently, the Church has taken a further Synodal journey, again placing at the centre of attention the situation of marriage and the family, firstly the Extraordinary Assembly in 2014 dedicated to “The Pastoral Challenges of the Family in the Context of Evangelisation”, and then in the Ordinary Assembly of 2015 on “The Vocation and the Mission of the Family in the Church and in the World”. The climax of this intense journey was the post-Synodal Apostolic Exhortation Amoris Laetitia, published on 19 March 2016. This Synodal season has led the Church towards a renewed awareness of the Gospel of the Family and of the new pastoral challenges to which the Christian community is called upon to answer. The centrality of the family in the paths of “pastoral conversion”[1] of our communities and of “missionary transformation of the Church”[2] demands that — also at the level of academic 2 formation — in reflection on marriage and on the family the pastoral perspective and attention to the wounds of humanity must never be lacking.
