Has, as its departure point, John Paul's series of lectures that came to be known as the theology of the body. For the writers of Scripture, to be human is to be in the image of God. Guided by this view, John Paul II affords the rediscovery of the meaning of the whole of existence, the meaning of life, through phenomenological application. And this application is especially needed in the modern theology of African Catholic faith.
