Only the Son of God can free us, because He is Himself true freedom. Only if we follow the Savior are we able to remain free and can cast off the slavery of sin. So, if we wish to be free, we should follow Christ the Savior.
Our first duty as people is to investigate and know ourselves. And our greatest error lies in the fact that we are usually entirely indifferent to the examination and recognition of ourselves and are concerned solely with inquiry into the world. Not only do we simply fail to take sufficient interest in ourselves, to our detriment, but we often go so far as to be exclusively unilateral, totally abandoning ourselves in the name of investigating the world. The next question which arises has to do with the limits of research and its applications: is it permissible for us to do us much as we might be able to? Ought there not to be some bounds to research and its applications. If ...

17 December 1989 In the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost. Ten lepers came to the Lord; ten men who were ritually unclean and therefore, ritually rejected by their community, unable to attend the common worship of the Temple, unable to come near the habitations of men; and unclean also in the eyes of men because their sickness could be transmitted to others: others could become impure, others could be sick unto death.
