A Timely And Necessary Reminder

As the Second Vatican Council observed: “In the depths of his conscience man detects a law which he does not impose on himself, but which holds him to obedience.”  Always summoning him to love good and avoid evil, the voice of conscience can when necessary speak to his heart, more specifically: “do this, shun that.”  For a man has in his heart a law written by God.  To obey it is the very dignity of man; according to it he will be judged (cf. Romans 2:14-16).
