God’s creation is one and it is good. The concerns for non-violence, sustainable development, justice and peace, and care for our environment are of vital importance for humanity. They cannot, however, be understood apart from a profound reflection upon the innate dignity of every human life from conception to natural death: a dignity conferred by God himself and thus inviolable.

Every human life deserves and needs to be defended and promoted.
Too often, especially in wealthy societies, life is exalted as long as it is pleasurable, but there is a tendency not to respect it any longer when it becomes ill or disabled.
