The Idea of a World-outlook Dialogue and Christian Thought

Stanisław Kowalczyk-1999-01-01-Dialogue and Universalism
0

TL;DRAbstract

The need for a dialogue between the Catholic Church and the contemporary world is confirmed by Pope John XXII (Pacem in terris), Paul VI (Ecclesiam suam) and John Paul II (Redemptor hominis). The premises for a world-outlook dialogue are of a variegated nature: anthropological (the psychic need for communication), social (the ideological pluralism of contemporary societies) and theological (the Bible conceived as a description of constant dialogues between man and God). Among the various forms of dialogue, doctrinal dialogue aims at a more thorough acquaintanceship with truth, while the goal of pragmatic dialogue is the cocreation of joint social welfare. The object of the postwar dialogue involving believers and nonbelievers consists of, i.a., humanism and personalism, labour, liberty and social justice.
