TUESDAY QUOTE OF THE WEEK CCLXXVIII

FINDING TRUTH WHEREVER IT MAY BE FOUND:  "Responsible citizenship is a virtue,
and participation in political life is a moral obligation."  Faithful Citizenship

 

QUOTE II:  "By our baptism, Catholics are committed to following Jesus Christ and to be "salt for the earth, light for the nations." As the Catechism of the Catholic Church reminds us, "It is necessary that all participate, according to his position and role, in promoting the common good. This is inherent in the dignity of the human person ... As far as possible citizens should take an active part in public life" (nos. 1913-1915)."
