If The Seminary Is Too Large, It Ought To Be Divided Into Smaller Communities With Formators Who Are Equipped Really To Accompany Those In Their Charge. Dialogue Must Be Serious, Without Fear, Sincere. It Is Important To Recall That The Language Of Young People In Formation Today Is Different From That In The Past: We Are Living Through An Epochal Change. Formation Is A Work Of Art, Not A Police Action. We Must Form Their Hearts. Otherwise We Are Creating Little Monsters. And Then These Little Monsters Mold The People Of God. This Really Gives Me Goose Bumps.

The Church Is Likewise Conscious Of The Responsibility Which All Of Us Have For Our World, For The Whole Of Creation, Which We Must Love And Protect. There Is Much That We Can Do To Benefit The Poor, The Needy And Those Who Suffer, And To Favour Justice, Promote Reconciliation And Build Peace. But Before All Else We Need To Keep Alive In Our World The Thirst For The Absolute, And To Counter The Dominance Of A One-dimensional Vision Of The Human Person, A Vision Which Reduces Human Beings To What They Produce And To What They Consume: This Is One Of The Most Insidious Temptations Of Our Time.
