ADDRESS OF HIS HOLINESS POPE LEO XIV
TO MEMBERS OF THE "CENTESIMUS ANNUS PRO PONTIFICE" FOUNDATION
Clementine Hall
Saturday, 17 May 2025
"Indoctrination” is immoral. It stifles critical judgement and undermines the sacred freedom of respect for conscience, even if erroneous. It resists new notions and rejects movement, change or the evolution of ideas in the face of new problems. “Doctrine,” on the other hand, as a serious, serene and rigorous discourse, aims to teach us primarily how to approach problems and, even more importantly, how to approach people. It also helps us to make prudential judgements when confronted with challenges. Seriousness, rigour and serenity are what we must learn from every doctrine, including the Church’s social doctrine. |
