Caritas - to whom or what for?

Špiro Marasović ; Katolički bogoslovni fakultet, Sveučilište u Splitu

Sažetak

Starting from conviction that the contemporary and social
changes in Croatia, because of rapidity and radicaly, mean in fact
social revolution, which must be accopmanied also with revolution in
the mode of participation in them of ali social subjects, the author
considers that this could apply to the way of Church social presence
and activity, especially in front of Caritas as organisation and
institution. In that sense, depending upon biblical-theological unity of
caritas and kenosis, the author explains his persuasion which he
reduces in the seven thesis: 1. Since Church is not parastate the duty of Caritas is not to duplicate or substitute state or social organization for social welfare. 2. Caritas according its definition serves to sameone (to God and man) but not to something (to standard, progress and similar). 3. Finis ultimus of Caritas is glory of God, but not social effect. 4. To attain it Caritas should not be too
institutionalize or centrailized. 5, For this purpose, apersonal serving
with capital, wherever it is possible should be replaced by personal
gifts in favorous. 6. Caritas should not command with capital but
distributes it. 7. Administration of Caritas should be completely
ceded to qualified deacons.
