Catholic perspectives on culture, society, and politics
Vox Nova
"In their patriotism and in their fidelity to their civic duties Catholics will feel themselves bound to promote the true common good; they will make the weight of their convictions so influential that as a result civil authority will be justly exercised and laws will accord with moral precepts and the common good."Second Vatican Council, Apostolicam actuositatem 14
