4 Catholic Social Teaching: Major themes Three major themes run through Scripture and Catholic social teaching. A core theme is that each human person is made in the image and likeness of God and thus has an inalienable human dignity and worth. Derived from this core theme are two further themes. These are the rights and duties that are proper to human persons and the freedom and responsibility that underpin these rights and duties. In more recent times there is growing awareness of the application of these three themes to both human persons and the whole of God’s creation.” (Guidelines for the religious life of the school, 2008, p.38)

5 Catholic Social Teaching a collection of teachings on key themes that has evolved in response to the challenges of the day grounded in the values and principles of Judeo-Christian religious experience, which are reflected in the Christian scriptures and the Church's lived tradition evolved as each generation has attempted to live in society with reflective fidelity to those values and that religious vision; a living tradition of thought and action calls all members of the Church to work to eliminate the occurrence and effect of poverty, to speak out against injustice and to shape a more just society and more sustainable and peaceful world “Challenged by the Gospel of Jesus Christ, the Catholic school seeks to be faithful to a biblical understanding of justice and the rich tradition of Church social teaching.” (Justice Education Policy, Archdiocese of Brisbane, Catholic Education Council, July 2012)
