"Just through faith explained Benedict XVI truth may become incarnated and the reason really human, capable of managing will along the path of liberty". In this way, "our institutions offer us a vital contribution to the mission of the Church, and serve society efficaciously. They become places where the active presence of God in human affairs is acknowledged, and every young person" discovers "Christ’s joy of starting being for other people". For that reason, according to the Pope, "the primary evangelization mission of the Church depends on the fundamental aspiration of the country to develop a society which should be really worth of the dignity of the human person. And educational institutions play a crucial role for that". However, since at times "the value of the contribution of the Church to the public forum is questioned", it is "important to recall that the truth of faith and the truth of reason do never contradict each other", and that, "in expressing the revealed truth", the Church "serves all the members of society, purifying reason", and "illuminates the foundation of morality and human ethics" recalling that "truth is not created by praxis, but truth must be used as basis for praxis". ” “
