Abstract: Religion is a vital component of culture and religion itself constitutes a form of culture. Catholicism is a major religion with a long-standing cultural identity and profound global influence.

Among the elements constituting culture, the Church prioritizes morality and truth, regarding them as the core components of a humanistic culture.
