29. Human Person
• As the Catechism of the
Catholic Church affirms,
“the human person, made
in the image of God, is a
being at once corporeal and
spiritual” (no. 362). The
human body is
human and living precisely
because it is animated by a
spiritual soul (ibid, no. 364).
So closely united are body
and soul in the human
person that one must
consider the soul to be the
“form” of the “body.”

32. Human Person
• It is only because it is
animated by a spiritual soul
that the body in question is
a living, human body. As
Pope John Paul II has said,
the human person’s
“rational soul is per se et
essentialiter the form of his
body,” and the “person,
including his body, is
completely entrusted to
himself, and it is in the unity
of body and soul that the
person is the subject of his
own moral acts.”
