God loves us unconditionally and calls us to love others. Our fundamental human dignity comes from being created in God's image and loved by God, not from anything we achieve. Jesus' life, death and resurrection revealed both God's love for humanity and our true nature and destiny, which is to be with God. We should live in loving relationships with others and work to care for the earth and develop it for humanity's benefit while also caring for our own needs.

An introduction to some themes of Pope Francis' encyclical on creation with photos, emphasizing its Franciscan roots and the mysticism at the root of the encylcical
Laudato Si- Encyclical Of Pope Francis on EnvironmentAnil Fernandes
Laudato Si is Pope Francis’ Encyclical on the environment. It has the subtitle "on care for our common home". The encyclical was officially published on 18 June 2015, contains 246 numbers. In this teaching document pope critiques consumerism and irresponsible development, laments environmental degradation and global warming, and calls all people of the world to take "swift and unified global action." The title Laudato Si is taken from a canticle by Saint Francis of Assisi which reminds us earth like a sister. The Pope says, “Our Sister, Mother Earth” is now crying out because of the way we humans have harmed her. “Nothing in this world is indifferent to us.” Human beings are indifferent to the cosmos. Hence, Pope Francis states the goal of the document is to enter into a dialogue with all concerning environment issues. He states, “In this Encyclical, I would like to enter into dialogue with all people about our common home” (LS3).
The encyclical is addressed to all people of “good will” i.e. every person living on this planet. It includes popular words like “poor” (61 mentions) and “crisis” (28) by which pope tries to enlighten us that all the problems concerning environment and climate change affect the poor and most vulnerable section of the society.
The presentation includes a step by step guide on how to say the Rosary along with all the divine mysteries. It also includes prayers like the Apostles' Creed, The Our Father, The Hail Mary, The Salve Regina, The Litany & The Memorare.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

1. Our Real Worth as a Person
Jesus taught us that our basic dignity as a person lies on the fact that:
We are loved. God loves us unconditionally. Nothing can diminish or
change God’s love for us.
We are called to love. God loves us and calls to do the same. Forgive,
because we are forgiven
God’s love for all human person is our basis of our fundamental human
dignity. God created us with dignity simply because He loves us. So it is
not something that we make. Thus, human dignity can never be
diminished. No one can take it away from anyone.
HOW DEEP IS GOD’S LOVE FOR US?
1. God created us in His image and likeness.
God simply created us with no other reason. He gave us intellect and
free will so that we can love and can freely choose to good for ourselves
and our neighbor. God is Triune-three divine persons forming one loving
communion. We survive and sustain life through relationships.
2. God the Son became human like us.
Our dignity as humans was raised to greater heights through Jesus’
Incarnation and Redemption. God became human to raise us to be His
adopted sons and daughters. Through His life, death, and resurrection, it
is revealed who God is to us and who we are to God. It reveals our
nature and the nature of God.
3. The Triune God dwells within and among us.
After His passion, death and resurrection, together with the Father, The
Risen Christ sent the Holy Spirit. Through the Spirit of the Risen Christ,
God continuously creates, redeems, empowers and sanctifies us toward a
graced life.
2. 4. God destined us for Himself.
Ultimate truth, goodness, peace, love and happiness can only be found in
God alone. We all seek for these things in life. But we only experience
in a limited and temporary condition. Our hearts long for these things,
but we can only find in God. Thus, we are destined for God alone.
LIVING A LIFE OF DIGNITY
1. Relation to Others
a. Fellow Human Persons.
Human person is loving and compassionate. We are loved by God. We
are capable of loving and we are called to love others. This is what it
means to be real human person.
b. Society
Our calling to love others is extended to love our society.
2. Relation to Earthly Goods
As embodied-spirit, we need material things for our survival, human
development and social progress. That is why we are called to take care
of God’s creation. We are called to “subdue” the Earth by:
a. Work – we use our capacity, talents and intelligence to cultivate the
richness of the earth.
b. Being responsible – we work to cultivate the earth in order to enhance
the quality of
3. Relation to Self
Loving and serving others require that we take care of ourselves also.
Just like others, we have dignity and needs to attend to. How we take
care of ourselves presupposes on how we take care of others. We need
time to rest, attend our needs and reflect on those things necessary for
our personal life as human person. “You shall love your neighbor as
yourself” (Mk 12:31)
