Respect for Life
Campus Ministry is active in promoting respect for life from natural birth to natural death. We do so in a manner that is consistent with the Roman Catholic Church’s ethic of life and grounded in Catholic Social Teaching and the understanding that all people are created in the image of God, and thus are entitled to human dignity. Year-long, academic research aimed at discussing relevant issues of life will help to promote human dignity through service, education, 意识和倡导.
Although respect-for-life is a topic that has been distorted with ideological government discourse and directed political party policy implementation, 尊重生命在圣. Edward's is an attitude and an inherent part of the morally focused way of life. Respect for life is rooted in the belief that the dignity and equality of all human persons is the foundation of a moral vision for society. The Pierle Scholar for Respect For Life Issues is filled by a St. Edward’s student(s) who is passionate about collaboratively working to sponsor and promote to build campus awareness for Respect for Life issues through research and scholarship. Their research is focused on topics such as the death penalty, abortion, euthanasia, human trafficking, homelessness and other social issues that impede upon the ability for people to live with dignity.
The goals of the Pierle Scholar are to:
- Create spaces for conversation and discussion about what it means to respect life.
- Develop an academic paper on respect life issues that is viable for publication both on and off St. Edward’s campus.
- Plan events, programs, and initiatives, 经常支持他们的论文主题, that educates on and promotes a deeper respect and compassion for life.
- Build relationships with students and faculty on-campus, as well as organizations off-campus to, 通过对话和服务, advocate for and educate on issues of respect life.
- Self-educate on issues of respect life in the local community and beyond.
