I reiterate what I clearly stated in \u201cDilexi te\u201d: \u201cThe education of the poor, for the Christian faith, is not a favor, but a duty\u201d. This genealogy of concreteness testifies that, in the Church, pedagogy is never disembodied theory, but flesh, passion and history.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sesenta a\u00f1os
