Zenit reports that Pope Benedict XVI invited professors to “transmit love of learning and of the truth through teaching” during his Angelus address in St. Peter’s Square last Sunday. From the report:
At the beginning of this university year, Benedict XVI is inviting professors to form young people in the truth and to transmit to them the knowledge that will enable them to make free choices. …
“Knowledge is important, but even more so is the formation of the person, so that he is able to discern where truth is and thus make free decisions,” he said.
Addressing university professors, the Holy Father exhorted, “Educate young people also in authentic moral and spiritual values, which will help them to find meaning in their lives.”
