However, it must always remain a dialogue, and never an imposition of the church's own convictions and methods. Propose, not impose. To serve, and not to dominate.

A servant church must have as its priority solidarity with the poor.

A church of dialogue in the contemporary world... a church, taking on the mission of Jesus, which is in the world not to judge humanity, but to love it and to save it.

The church, inserted and active in human society and in history, does not exist in order to exercise political power or to govern the society.

The faith must express itself in charity and in solidarity, which is the civil form of charity.

In fact, a large majority of those have died and of those expected to die of AIDS, as well as of those who are infected with the virus, are in sub-Saharan Africa.

The church must constantly promote dialogue.
