This essay collection discusses such issues as an integral concept of the human being, certain problems and aspects of theology (particularly moral theology), and the idea of the university. Although the essays were published in varíous journals and books some time ago they may still be of interest. The reader will observe how the author\'s reflections often reference what is called official Church teaching - Catholic above all, but non-Catholic faith documents and formulations are also considered. In particular, the volume highlights the author\'s longstanding interest in an authentic dialogue among Christian denominations and their theological convictions, including on ethics and moral theology.
