This is something that is given to us by God so it may never be taken away. We are all created equally no matter what color or gender we are. It is our duty to protect the human dignity of every person here on earth.]]> 2017-02-15 04:34:06 UTC https://padlet.com/richiewarfield47/kx2uedecsur4/wish/153920641 richiewarfield47 https://padlet.com/richiewarfield47/kx2uedecsur4/wish/153920710 The USCCB states that there is no distinction between defending a human's right to life and promoting the dignity of a person. Human life sacred because it is from God and must be protected since it is the most fundamental principle of human rights. The USCCB even states in their General Mission and Goals the necessity to uphold life from conception until death with a special concern for the poor and vulnerable . ]]> 2017-02-15 04:35:09 UTC https://padlet.com/richiewarfield47/kx2uedecsur4/wish/153920710 richiewarfield47 https://padlet.com/richiewarfield47/kx2uedecsur4/wish/153921411 God commands us to care for his creation with love. Much like human beings, the rest of God’s creation was manifested with worth and a purpose. And it is our duty as stewards of creation to protect and care for this diverse world we have been gifted.]]> 2017-02-15 04:44:58 UTC https://padlet.com/richiewarfield47/kx2uedecsur4/wish/153921411 richiewarfield47 https://padlet.com/richiewarfield47/kx2uedecsur4/wish/153921513 We must work towards forming a perfect union between the society we have built and the natural world God created for us. This task can often become difficult as sin and selfishness get in the way of showing love to god through appreciation of his handiwork. But with focus and solidarity it is a goal that can be achieved.]]> 2017-02-15 04:46:12 UTC https://padlet.com/richiewarfield47/kx2uedecsur4/wish/153921513 richiewarfield47 https://padlet.com/richiewarfield47/kx2uedecsur4/wish/153921865 The application of the Church's teaching to our culture today shows great value of human dignity and the respect of God's creation. Our culture has a society of people who understand the dangers that God's creation face such as pollution and the extinction of many species. It is up to us to be a loving and caring society who treats both the people in our world and our world in general with the dignity and respect we expect to receive ourselves.]]> 2017-02-15 04:51:49 UTC https://padlet.com/richiewarfield47/kx2uedecsur4/wish/153921865 richiewarfield47 https://padlet.com/richiewarfield47/kx2uedecsur4/wish/153922307 It is our duty to leave this Earth better than the way we found it and, even though we are high school students, we have the ability to make a difference. Simple tasks such as recycling, not littering,  or even printing papers double sided all have an impact on the preservation of nature which is a huge part of God's creation. Also, we can work to preserve our resources by carpooling to school, taking shorter showers, or even unplugging  our devices when they are not being used. On a larger scale, we can spread awareness for animals who are going extinct and even donate money to organization such as the World Wildlife Foundation.]]> 2017-02-15 04:59:28 UTC https://padlet.com/richiewarfield47/kx2uedecsur4/wish/153922307 richiewarfield47 https://padlet.com/richiewarfield47/kx2uedecsur4/wish/153922868 2017-02-15 05:08:10 UTC https://padlet.com/richiewarfield47/kx2uedecsur4/wish/153922868
