The Human Condition

 

            The title of the document is known as "The Human Condition.
             written on August 12, 1950 by Pope Pius XII. It was written about.
             false opinions threatening to undermine the foundations of catholic.
             doctrine. The catholic people during this time, were starting to form.
             their own ideas about Catholicism. This caused a huge problem.
             between church leaders and their parishes because they simply did.
             not take the Bible seriously and did not believe or have faith in the.
             many things Catholics are called to believe. .
             There were many things happening during this time that may.
             have caused many Catholics to change their beliefs such as the.
             Korean War and the Cold War. Both wars were causing an immense.
             amount of bloodshed and many Americans were thinking about how.
             the wars would affect America and God's plan. The 1950's was also a.
             time for individual thinking and humanist ideas. This caused Catholics.
             to question every aspect of their daily lives including religion.
             There are four major aspects of this document. The Pope used.
             these points to attempt making a point to Catholics everywhere about.
             their faith. The first major point is that humans today easily persuade.
             themselves in matters that they do not wish to believe are false or at.
             least doubtful. So, for this reason, divine revelation must be.
             considered morally necessary for humans everywhere so that the.
             religious and moral truths of life are realized and this therefore, would.
             make humans free from all error. This would have an impact globally.
             and there would be no violent acts, no hunger and wealth would be.
             possible for the whole world today if each human thought morally and.
             religiously about each and every matter and situation in life.
             The second major point is that human nature causes us not to.
             believe anything unless we see it for ourselves. Humans must believe.
             there is a presence of God in our world without seeing Him. If humans.
             saw God in the world, there would be more faith in God and in the.
