It must be formed and oriented towards truth, reason, and God&#8217;s word (CCC 1776\u20131802).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Therefore, the formation of conscience includes the willingness to examine oneself:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Am I really seeking the truth \u2013 or just the confirmation of my own opinion?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Can I be wrong and contradict myself without devaluing the other?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">FATHER FRANZ REINISCH<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A historical example is the Pallottine Father <strong>Franz Reinisch<\/strong>. He refused to take the oath of allegiance to Adolf Hitler for reasons of conscience and was executed on August 21, 1942, in Brandenburg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Pallottines refer to him as the only Catholic priest who refused the oath of allegiance to Hitler. His beatification process was opened in 2013; the diocesan investigation in Trier was completed in 2019. The process continues in Rome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">His testimony is not meant to equate the Nazi era simply with the present. Rather, it poses the fundamental question:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>What happens when a person is convinced that they must obey God and their conscience more than a human power?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">THE TEN COMMANDMENTS<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Ten Commandments are viewed as a question for our present. Jesus does not simply abolish them but leads them to fulfillment in love for God and neighbor (CCC 2052 ff.).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>How do we want to live together?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">FREEDOM AND RESPONSIBILITY<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Freedom also means taking responsibility for one&#8217;s own thinking, speaking, and acting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I can set boundaries without exercising violence. I can disagree without hating. I can say no without dehumanizing the other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>I am responsible for my own actions \u2013 not for controlling the heart or reaction of another person.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">PEACE BEGINS AT THE KITCHEN TABLE<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Great politics also begins at the kitchen table.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">How do we talk to each other? How do we deal with those who think differently?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The catechism understands peace not only as the absence of war. Peace is connected with justice, human dignity, brotherhood, and love; peace is also the fruit of the peace of Christ for Christians (CCC 2302\u20132306).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Peace does not mean indifference. Peace means: truth without hatred.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">THE LOOK UPWARD<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I can say what I believe and point to Christ. What the other makes of it is not entirely in my hands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u201cYOU ARE LOVED\u201d<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Perhaps this is the simplest sentence of this Monday conversation:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>You are loved.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As a Christian, I believe: Man is created by God and therefore possesses dignity. This applies also to the person who believes, doubts, or thinks differently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"687\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/okitalk.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/image-4-687x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-17392\" srcset=\"https:\/\/okitalk.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/image-4-687x1024.jpg 687w, https:\/\/okitalk.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/image-4-201x300.jpg 201w, https:\/\/okitalk.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/image-4-768x1144.jpg 768w, https:\/\/okitalk.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/image-4.jpg 784w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 687px) 100vw, 687px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">MY SEED IS HOPE, FAITH, AND LOVE<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>My seed is hope, faith, and love.<br>I want to pass it on.<br>What the other does with it is their business.<br>I cannot decide that.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I can decide what I sow myself:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Hatred or peace.
