FILOSOFIA

"Although the Pastoral Constitution Gaudium et Spes offers a view of “the place and role of man in the universe” (No. 3) which can certainly be taken as a the starting point for the solution of the ecological crisis of our time, few scholars and political activists seem to have taken it into account. Much of the present literature on ecology, environmental ethics, and environmental policy runs in a direction that is at odds with the most fundamental Christian truths and values, despite of the efforts of many Catholic institutions and theologians to shed light on the issue. An example of this new sensibility can be found in the Earth Charter Initiative; a Christian may agree on the problems it points out, but would feel disappointed about the proposed solutions, since they completely ignore God and the transcendental destiny of man. Why is the Christian message about the place of man in cosmos ignored? What can the Church do to explain her message more clearly?
