Evangelium vitae/Nos. 1-78
Number of pages:
4
ABSTRACT:
A 4 page essay that summarizes and analyzes the first sections of Pope John Paul II's eleventh encyclical, Evangelium vitae, which is addressed "To the Bishops, Priests and Deacons, Men and women religious, lay Faithful and all People of Good Will." As this indicates, John Paul is not simply emphasizing the Church's expectations for Catholics in this document, but rather he discusses the fundamental values that define our times as they apply to the "Value and Inviolability of Human Life" and in so doing addresses the entirety of humanity. In making this appeal, the pope grounds his argument not only in scripture, but in logical and astute observations of the human condition that are persuasive and compelling. No additional sources cited.
