Social Aspects of the Mountain Teaching
Samiec, Tomáš ; Jandejsek, Petr (advisor) ; Milfait, René (referee)
The topic of this work is the Mountain teaching and its effects to contemporary social work. I analyze its particular thesis and their practical use. First chapter is about Blessings. I interpret their seemingly ambiguous meaning and I try to find, what they are about to say to us today. Next chapter is about some of following statements joined to interpersonal relationships. These thesis concure to previous blessings and execute previous chapter's thoughts. There is an evident theoretically-practical relationship between two of these chapters. The last chapter is about possibilities to execute these thoughts within contemporary conditions. But also I consider with question of church's place in the social area, because this question is interesting and not unique. But there is no doubt that church stanceis important due to helping others is an implementation of Mountain teaching's social aspects. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)
