🌹✝️ Father Anderso, God Bless you from Canada ✝️🙏🌹🇨🇦🇺🇸. I am studying Catholic Social Teachings now.
I am not a Christian and certainly not a Catholic, but I agree with the moral teachings of Jesus and I am moved to the heart by the Sermon on the Mount. I have therefore taking an interest in Catholic Social Teaching, which I find politically more appealing than the failed experiments of socialism and the unsettling ideas of progressive liberalism, AKA wokism.
Summary of the 7 Principles of Catholic Social Teaching:
1) Dignity of the Human person
2) Call to Family and Communion
3) Families and People have Rights and Responsibilities
4) The Option for the Poor and Vulnerable
5) Dignity of Work and the Rights of Workers
6) Solidarity (everyone of us are part of a large human family)
7) Care for God's Creation

3:50 You'd agree, I hope, that just because option for the poor comes before dignity of worker, doesn't mean people who think they are a Catholic parish have the right to sacrifice my capacity as a worker (writer) to their good conscience in going on "caring for a poor" (who would not have been poor, if they had not marginalised my writings). Right?
4:28 Can we agree that "right to employment" and "right to a good wage" are not the sole ways to care for the rights of workers, as not all workers are someone else's employees?
Self employment as a writer is a thing.
Now, I could understand a Catholic parish that said "your writing stinks, you are schismatic, even heretic, and we won't support you for that kind of work" ... what I can't understand is one that pretty obviously feels that way, but hides all of that under a veneer, "you know, you are poor, we care for you" ... they prefer caring for me as for a pauper over seeing me in print. AND they do that on such an organised level, it colours the neighbourhood.
Hi Father,
Wondering what primary sources you used to compile these 7 principles?
Looking to write a senior thesis on this topic.
Thanks
