Searching for Human Dignity: The Anthropological Dimension of Moral Teachings of Benedict XVI

The first and fundamental thesis of the revealed anthropology is the truth about the dignity of a human person. Nevertheless, in today’s world one can observe certain symptoms of the lack of respect for self-dignity and dignity of other people.
