Implication

The article examines how law defines 'truth' and its relation to the absolute truth proposed by John Paul II, suggesting implications for legal practices.

Key Points

  • Law defines truth in a specific legal framework, which often conflicts with the concept of absolute truth.
  • Analysis highlights that formal and procedural truths in legal systems do not guarantee access to absolute truth.
  • The encyclical Fides et ratio argues for the existence of absolute truth, which law may fail to uphold.
  • When legal constructs prioritize technological and majority will over absolute truths, fundamental human values may be undermined.
