“Holding fast the faithful word which is in accordance with the teaching, so that he will be able both to exhort in sound doctrine and to refute those who contradict.” -Tit. 1:9
We must be knowledgeable on all life topics, keep informed on legislative issues, and learn how our Catholic moral teaching is applied to matters of daily living especially in the biological sciences and healthcare, i.e. bioethics.
