the understanding of moral acts for adultsthe united states catholic catechism for adults offers a take on the three elements characterizing moral acts that may be a bit easier to grasp than the catechism of the catholic church's presentation." | 16842 16842=7x2406 1+6+8+4+2=21=7x3 |
| Value of phrase ")for an individual act to be morally good, the object, or what we are doing, must be objectively good." | 6861 6+8+6+1=21=7x3 |
| Value of phrase "if we are motivated to do something by a bad intention -- even something that is objectively good -- our action is morally evil." | 8970 8970=13x690 |
| Value of phrase "it must also be recognized that a good intention cannot make a bad action (something intrinsically evil) good." | 6350 6+3+5+0=14=7x2 |
| Value of phrase "this is the meaning of the saying, "the end does not justify the means." | 4432 4+4+3+2=13 |
| Value of phrase "in addition, the circumstances may affect one's personal responsibility for the act." | 5103 5103=7x729 |
| Value of phrase "all three aspects must be good -- the objective act, the subjective intention, and the circumstances -- in order to have a morally good act." | 8058 8+0+5+8=21=7x3 |
| Value of phrase "this teaching, which recognizes both the objective and subjective dimension of morality, is often at odds with a perspective that views morality as a completely personal or merely subjective reality." | 15813 15813=7x2259 |
| Value of phrase "and emphasizing "both the objective and subjective dimension of morality" is important these days, as the catechism says." | 8479 8+4+7+9=28=7x4 |
| Value of phrase "the price of simplicity is, in part, that it leaves unspoken how to decide what "what we do" is." | 6923 6923=7x989 |
| Value of phrase "but at least stating the independent objectivity of what we do shows that it is not wholly fungible, and hints at the possibility that what we say we are doing, or even what we think we are doing, isn't objectively the case." | 18982 1+8+9+8+2=28=7x4 |
| Value of phrase "in other words, can it be interpreted as defining torture as "the use of physical or moral violence to either extract confessions, or punish the guilty, or frighten opponents, or satisfy hatred," with the implication that the use of physical or moral violence for any other reason isn't torture, and therefore isn't covered by the many, many ecclesial statements that torture is wrong?" | 27570 2+7+5+7+0=21=7x3 |
| Value of phrase "consider this question: is the use of thumbscrews on a prisoner, to the point of leaving him writhing in pain, torture?" | 7662 7+6+6+2=21=7x3 |

| Value of phrase "the compendium of the social doctrine of the church -- "which, according to the request received from the holy father, has been drawn up in order to give a concise but complete overview of the church's social teaching" -- quotes pope john paul ii's 1982 speech:in carrying out investigations, the regulation against the use of torture, even in the case of serious crimes, must be strictly observed: "christ's disciple refuses every recourse to such methods, which nothing could justify and in which the dignity of man is as much debased in his torturer as in the torturer's victim." | 37457 37457=7x5351 3+7+4+5+7=26=13x2 |
