“The recognition of the inalienable rights of the human person - TopicsExpress



          

“The recognition of the inalienable rights of the human person is Americanism, or to put it another way, an affirmation of the inherent dignity and worth of man. This does not mean humanity but each human; not mankind but this man; not man in the abstract but in the concrete. ... The exact statement of our problem today is not the forgotten man, in the sense of the hungry man, but the forgotten man in the sense of forgotten human worth, and forgotten human dignity.” ~ Fulton J. Sheen, Freedom Under God, Liberty and The Republic, (1940/2013), page 149.
