The Inviolability Of The Person Which Is A Reflection Of The Absolute Inviolability Of God, Finds Its Primary And Fundamental Expression In The Inviolability Of Human Life. Above All, The Common Outcry, Which Is Justly Made On Behalf Of Human Rights-for Example, The Right To Health, To Home, To Work, To Family, To Culture- Is False And Illusory If The Right To Life, The Most Basic And Fundamental Right And The Condition For All Other Personal Rights, Is Not Defended With Maximum Determination.

A Society In Which This Right Is Systematically Denied, In Which Economic Policies Do Not Allow Workers To Reach Satisfactory Levels Of Employment, Cannot Be Justified From An Ethical Point Of View, Nor Can That Society Attain Social Peace.
