At a time when the contemporary world is marked by conceptual confusion, moral upheaval, and growing distortion of innate human constants, there is an urgent need for a rigorous intellectual discourse. Such a discourse must rebuild the relationship between the human being and religion, between reason and revelation, and between innate disposition and moral responsibility, so that these concepts and values may be restored to their proper foundations after multiple forms of distortion.
This book therefore seeks to develop an integrated intellectual vision of a set of pivotal concepts indispensable to doctrinal, intellectual, and educational formation. Its concepts are developed according to a precise scholarly methodology that balances text, reason, innate disposition, and science, and combines grounding with analysis in a concise and rigorous scholarly style.
The book comprises a collection of studies addressing central concepts in human and religious thought. It affirms that sound innate disposition, right reason, human values, and infallible revelation are fundamental pillars that work together in forming the well-balanced human being, consolidating the concepts that preserve human nature and uphold human dignity, and opening the way to a sound understanding capable of shaping a balanced and aware generation able to bear the trust of the human being in existence.
