Catholic Education, Faith and Authority
Journal Title: Studia Paedagogica Ignatiana. Rocznik Wydziału Pedagogicznego Akademii Ignatianum w Krakowie - Year 2017, Vol 20, Issue 5
Abstract
The text aims to show that authority and obedience are essential within Catholic education. In fact, Faith is “obedience” to the Truth as says the Second Vatican Council and the Truth is endowed with “authority” because God Himself is embodied in Jesus Christ. It is necessary to stress that – according to the Christian faith – this dependence upon God is not a kind of slavery but rather a loving relationship to the Father which sets humans free. This happens because man has an original dignity coming from his creation “in God’s image”. Catholic education must make people able to practice self-dominion (through the experience of authority) in order to choose only what is good so as to obey to the truth of human identity.
