Abstract

Christianity with its doctrine of the creation of the world made a break with the fatum pagan, revealing to man his freedom and co responsibility. Every man doesn't have to rip from God his freedom, because he receives it from Him as a free gift and has the task of recognizing it and accept it. Various mental currents on the European continent of the last decades of this century and especially the development of science and technology can also be understood as an invitation from God made to man so that he takes co responsibility for the world and for its future. A positive one response to this invitation constitutes a fuller truth about God's love and man's freedom. Man's freedom ends where his reality is reduced either to sacred reality alone or the profane one. For this reason we cannot speak of an absolute autonomy of terrestrial realities, but one must also take into consideration the moral standards established by God.
