“In virtue of man’s dual nature, he is part of a whole, a citizen in the State, and yet possessed of rights independent of the State; a soldier in an army and yet a captain of himself; bound to the State and yet the State is bound to him; immanent in the social order, and yet transcendent to it.  He is in the State but not of it – an entity belonging to two worlds; a political animal, and a theological creature.”  Archbishop Fulton Sheen (Freedom Under God)
