The Human Individual

The human individual

Being in the image of God the human individual possess the dignity of a person, who is not just something, but someone.

He is capable of self-knowledge, of self-possession and of freely giving himself and entering into communion with other persons.

And he is called by grace to a covenant with his Creator, to offer him a response of faith and love that no other creature can give in his stead.
– Catechism of the Catholic Church, Paragraph 357
