Dignity of the Human Person: Belief in the inherent dignity of the human person is the founda0on of all Catholic social teaching. Each and every one of us is made in the image and likeness of God. Common Good and Community: We realize our dignity in rela0onship with others and we all have a responsibility to the common good. Op0on for the Poor: The moral

test of a society is how it treats its most vulnerable members. Depriva0on and

powerlessness of the poor wounds the whole community. Rights and Responsibilites: Every person has a fundamental right to life and to those things required for human dignity star0ng with food, shelter and clothing, employment, health care, and educa0on. We also have responsibili0es -- to one another, to our families, and to the larger society. Role of Government: The state is an instrument to promote human dignity, protect human rights, and build the common good. All have a right and responsibility to par0cipate in poli0cal ins0tu0ons. Economic Jus0ce: The economy must serve the people, not the other way around. All workers have a right to produc;ve work, to decent and fair wages, and to organize and join unions. No one is allowed to amass excessive wealth when others lack the basic necessi0es of life. Stewardship of Gods Crea0on: The goods of the earth are gi=s from God, and we have a responsibility to care for these goods as stewards and trustees, not as mere consumers and users. Promo0on of Peace and Disarmament: In the words of Pope John Paul II, "Peace is not just the absence of war. It involves mutual respect and condence between peoples and na0ons. It involves collabora0on and binding agreements. Global Solidarity and Development: We are one human family and authen0c development must respect and promote personal, social, economic, and poli0cal rights, including the rights of na0ons and of peoples.
