Men Have Never Been Individually Self-sufficient.

A Church Has The Right To Set Its Own Standards Within Its Community. I Don't Think It Has A Right To Prohibit Birth Control Or To Enforce Upon A Secular Society Its Conception Of Divorce And The Indissolubility Of The Marriage Tie.

...(i)ndividual Selfhood Is Expressed In The Self's Capacity For Self-transcendence And Not In Its Rational Capacity For Conceptual And Analytic Procedures.

God, Grant Me The Serenity To Accept The Things I Cannot Change, The Courage To Change The Things I Can, And The Wisdom To Know The Difference. Grant Me The Patience With Changes That Take Time, Appreciation Of All That I Have, Tolerance Of Those With Different Struggles, And The Strength To Get Up And Try Again, One Day At A Time.

I Wouldn't Judge A Man By The Presuppositions Of His Life, But Only By The Fruits Of His Life. And The Fruits - The Relevant Fruits - Are, I'd Say, A Sense Of Charity, A Sense Of Proportion, A Sense Of Justice.

God, Give Me Grace To Accept With Serenity The Things That Cannot Be Changed.
