Rola „geniuszu” kobiety w budowaniu „cywilizacji miłości” na podstawie nauczania Jana Pawła II

Abstract

In their service to a concrete person, women „fulfill this form of affective, cultural and spiritual maternity” (Lk 9) which – because of the influence they have on the building of the „civilization of love” – is invaluable. The fundamental progress of humankind is not measured solely in scientific and technical categories, though even these fields are not short of a great contribution made by women. A social and ethical dimension, which includes interpersonal relations and spiritual virtues, is of greater importance. In this respect the participation of women, who serve this dimension by realizing their „genius”, is invaluable. This often happens naturally, without much fuss in everyday interpersonal relations, especially in family life (see Lk 9), whence it radiates on the whole society and the life of the ecclesiastical community.
