Una mirada sobre la violencia, la pobreza y el hábitat a la luz de la teología moral filial

Abstract

This article aims at seeking an answer to some emerging social problems in
Latin America, such as violence, poverty and human habitat, from the perspective
of filial moral theology. This perspective –founded on the Pauline
doctrine- facilitates a new look at these problems; it clarifies their intricacy
and denigrating condition and paves the way towards a Christian and human
answer. In fact, when social disorder is theologically constrained and its core
focuses on the reluctance of men to acknowledge the place of God, and therefore their own place, the accurate answer is to politically promote the place

of each human being as a living member of the body of Christ. In sum, as a
challenge to the common good, the social task is to create the conditions
under which the filial and fraternal truth can be achieved.
