//This idea struck me because it shows the Church's view of politics and how a good Catholic should approach them. The Church did a good job of guiding thier community through the positive role of government while maintaining the seperation of Church and State.//
 * "The Church equips her members to adress political questions by helping them develop well-formed consciences."**

//In this simple sentence the Church explains that intentional damage to any human any time is unacceptable. Every human is made by God in His liking and should enjoy the same respect and rights of any other.//
 * "Human life is sacred."**

//Solidarity captures the most important aspect of the Church, community. Everyone is welcome within the Church, despite any "national, racial, ethnic, economic, and ideological differences." It is important for members of the Church to accept others and understand that our differences are what makes the Catholic Church truly catholic.//
 * "We are one human family, whatever our national, racial, ethnic, economic, and ideological differences."**

//The economy should bring good to the human race, and not be used for shunning others from their basic rights and needs such as livable wages. As a Church, Catholics should strive to use econmic skills to bring dignity and good to those who are in need.//
 * "Economic justice calls for decent work at fair, living wages... and the opportunity for all people to work together for the common good through their work."**

//Helping those in need should be a social project, not just an individual one. The Church is called to help every human, especially those in need. This calling should not be acted on by merely one person, it needs to be acted on by the whole community as one human family.//
 * "A moral test for society is how we treat the weakest among us- the unborn, those dealing with disabilities or terminal illness, the poor and marginalized."**
