Cardinal Francis George, president of the American Bishops Conference, said his latest work 'The Difference God Makes: a catholic vision of faith, communion and culture'.
"policy - says George - Should get used to looking at reality fleeing from a fragmentation daughter of a vision for what the magazines. Policy should be a unified vision of man. Today, the greatest difficulty that we as a church is to communicate to society that there is a hierarchy of values \u200b\u200bthat takes into account the whole and not only the particular. Take the issue of abortion or life in general. The voice is heard dela church in the United States, but also very opposed. And the critical place for one reason: because our company believes that the individualism and freedom of choice are the most important value to be protected. Of course, the basis is a concept of partial freedom, but the problem of values remains. Free will is better than life today. The defense of life is also considered a value, but freedom of choice is a most important value. "
George explains that the Obama Administration with its church, and above all ethical issues have always liked the comparison that sometimes becomes a struggle. "The moral of the church on certain issues has not changed. I do not see differences of thought in the church. L'Osservatore Romano - true - may have written ten lines in favor of Obama, some other cardinal may have spoken in glowing terms of the current American administration, but found beyond a journalistic point remains: the church can not betray itself ".
