{"product_id":"ratzinger-the-true-europe","title":"The True Europe: Its Identity and Mission","description":"\"The ecological movement discovered that 'nature' prescribes for us a moderation that we cannot ignore with impunity. Unfortunately, 'human ecology' has still not been made concrete. A human being, too, has a 'nature' that is prescribed for him, and violating or denying it leads to self-destruction.\" - Benedict XVI, from the preface\nThis collection of selected works is Benedict XVI's heartfelt call for Europe to rediscover its true origin and identity, in order to become once again a beacon of beauty and humanity for the world. Such a revival would be not simply about imposing the truths of faith as the foundation of Europe, but about making a fundamental choice for justice: to live as if God exists rather than as if he does not.\nJust as Pope John XXIII once called on the great nations of the earth to avoid a devastating nuclear war, Benedict XVI addresses not only Europe but the whole West, so that, by again finding their own soul as a people, they can save the world from self-destruction--both physical and spiritual.\n\u003ch3 class=\"additional-product-info-title\"\u003eAdditional Information\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"additional-product-info\"\u003e\u003ctable class=\"responsive-table\"\u003e\n \u003ctr\u003e \u003ctd\u003eAuthor\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd\u003eJoseph Ratzinger (Pope Benedict XVI)\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e\n \u003ctr\u003e \u003ctd\u003eISBN \/ Code\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd\u003e9781621645955\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e\n \u003ctr\u003e \u003ctd\u003eFormat\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd\u003ePaperback\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e\n \u003ctr\u003e \u003ctd\u003ePages \/ Minutes\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd\u003e322\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e\n \u003ctr\u003e \u003ctd\u003ePublisher\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd\u003eIgnatius Press\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Ignatius Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43210504700002,"sku":"9781621645955","price":36.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0044\/9770\/3010\/files\/ratzinger-the-true-europe-2048_57280149-c9a9-4895-b9ff-aa56d5f2d7aa.jpg?v=1786735317","url":"https:\/\/cardinal-newman-aus.myshopify.com\/products\/ratzinger-the-true-europe","provider":"Cardinal Newman Faith Resources Inc","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
