Every reader Deus caritas est believer or non-believer, you will be moved by the force of theological and philosophical intuition of Pope Benedictine XVI. The encyclical is involved in the profound exegesis of the Bible (appreciate that many Protestants), Fathers of the Church and of Christian history and tradition to explain the meaning of such a profound and universal concept, which is love. The text is full of explanations of Scripture and references to classic Christian authors, in particular St. Augustine. Love – caritas – will always prove necessary, even in the most just society. There is no ordering of the State so just that it can eliminate the need for a service of love. Whoever wants to eliminate love is preparing to eliminate man as such. There will always be suffering which cries out for consolation and help. There will always be loneliness. There will always be situations of material need where help in the form of concrete love of neighbour is indispensable.
