Pope Leo XIV continues catechesis on Vatican II

In brief

Pope Leo XIV continued his catechesis on the Second Vatican Council on September 16, focusing on the second chapter of the pastoral constitution Gaudium et Spes regarding human communities.

The Pope stated that technological progress and artificial intelligence should not replace genuine interpersonal relationships or take over decisions that belong to the human conscience. He called for respect for the dignity of every person, the overcoming of discrimination, and the building of the common good.

Leo XIV noted that the future of humanity depends on the commitment of each individual to work with God and others to build a more human world.
