If Christ has nothing to do with what you touch and look at it, it's not true that you are touching, it's not true that you are looking. It's not true that he has nothing to do with these things; rather, what's true is that you're not looking, touching, loving - your humanity isn't true. In fact, you're confused about your destiny and you're completely skeptical about the possibility of reaching your destiny. What is human is missing: in our doubt, it's not Christ that is missing, but rather our humanity. Msgr. Luigi Giussani
Is Christ missing, or is it our humanity?
