The Church is called upon to provide these social services. The State has no just role in pubic life except to keep the peace, protect the borders, establish justice, and preserve the national patrimony. In a Christian social order, the State officially recognizes the Church's special role in the life of the nation, and protects and support the Church in its provision of social services. This was the pattern of social organization throughout Christendom until the advent of the Lutheran heresy, which proclaimed the cult of individual Liberty and its separation of Church and State.

An excellent statement- Truth is.... the modernist don't have a clue,thus calling themselves conservatives and liberals- they are both really liberals who have no idea what true freedom really means compared to Pope Leo XIII and Pope Benedict XVI

From the words of Blessed Bishop Fulton Sheen...

"Under this system there is no will but the class will or the national will or the race will. The person no longer exists."

True freedom does not give man the right to do whatever you or I please, not the duty to do whatever you must; but it means the right to do whatever you ought- and oughtness implies law, responsibility, purpose. In other words freedom in inseparable from the God of Love Who made us.

Fine words. I wonder what the mother and father of Edgar Mortara would have made of them.
