Master's Thesis from the year 2014 in the subject Theology - Miscellaneous, grade: A, , course: Master of Theology - Systematic, language: English, abstract: In this dissertation I tried to outline the thoughts of Pope Francis expressed in his first two documents, and in that light understand the Church in India and its challenges today. I do not claim this study as complete and final. As the title of this research indicates, one can experience profound joy when one believes truthfully and practices it sincerely. The papal documents invite the faithful to experience that joy and to share it with the fellow beings. The modern and postmodern developments led the humankind to a culture of anonymity, impersonal relations, and to an inhuman orientation for profit and personal benefits ignoring the other. Utilitarian objectification of fellow humans marked this culture. Here is heard a different and varied voice, the voice of Pope Francis, which is concerned about the poor and the marginalized.
