So obviously, as we said, like five times already, today is the feast of the Holy Family.

And one of the things that's so important, I think something we forgot to maybe as people,

as a culture, as a civilization is that what I said is that the family is the fundamental

building block of society.

So Christianity, what has Christianity done?

Christianity has elevated the individual.

Christianity, and it alone, Judeo Christianity has highlighted the fact that individual human

beings have inalienable rights, that the dignity of the person is actually belongs to the

person, right?

So before Judeo-Christian perspective, human life was of whatever value they could offer,

contribute, of utility, or whatever someone preferred.

So it was preferential utility, and then the Judeo-Christian revelation is that no actually

every single human life is of inestimable value, worth the death of God himself.

And so you're more important than the group.

The individual is more important than the group.

That's kind of like one of the secrets that Christianity revealed to the world.

The individual is more important than the group.

At the same time, we recognize that the fundamental building block of society is

the family.

It's not the individual.

I remember when I first came across that, it was like this statement.

I was like, oh, yeah, that kind of sounds right, but at the same time, it doesn't.
