Summary

This quote alludes to a common perception in the public sector that career progression through internal promotions, starting from a lower-level position, is viewed unfavorably. Unlike in the private sector, where climbing the corporate ladder is seen as a commendable achievement, this quote suggests that individuals who have advanced solely within the public sector may be seen as lacking ambition or lacking the breadth of experience that comes from different organizations.

Another key element of human ecology is the inviolability of human life, especially at its beginning and its end. The Holy See insistently proclaims that the first and most fundamental of all human rights is the right to life, and that when this right is denied all other rights are threatened. The assumption that abortion and euthanasia are human rights deserving legislative sanction is seen by the Holy See as a contradiction which amounts to a denial of the human dignity and freedom which the law is supposed to protect. A society will be judged on the basis of how it treats its weakest members; and among the most vulnerable are surely the unborn and the dying.http://www.vatican.va/holy_father/john_paul_ii/speeches/2000/index.htm
