Dignitas infinita – continuity or sidestep

Summary/Abstract: The declaration "Dignitas infinita" issued by the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith on April 8, 2024, emphasizes the infinite dignity of all human beings regardless of their circumstances. Unlike previous documents, this declaration extends the concept of human dignity to all stages of life and various situations, from conception to coma and agony. It argues against theories that deny dignity to unborn children or people in irregular life situations. The declaration draws on the teachings of Pope John Paul II and Pope Benedict XVI, highlighting the Church's commitment to defending the dignity of the weak and voiceless. It also addresses contemporary issues such as poverty, war, migration, human trafficking, violence against women, abortion, gender ideology, and euthanasia. The document underscores the Church's stance on the sanctity of life and the importance of respecting human dignity in all its forms.
