Summary: | In the context of the important questions raised by the papal exhortation Amoris Laetitia, this article aims at studying the relationship existing in moral theology between the conscience, precepts and perception, as they are presented in chapter VIII of the document. Particular attention is given to the connection between the objective and the subjective. With this aim in sight we first examined the criticism regarding the subjective understanding of the Exhortation. This was raised by four cardinals who duly signalled the points requiring clarification from the Holy Father, and here a reading of the Thomist interpretation is given which links the object (act) to the subject (intention). In order to overcome the alternative between the objectivity of the precept and the subjectivity of the conscience, this article proposes a theoretical review of the connection between conscience and precept. Rather than interpret these as in direct confrontation, they have been considered from the point of view of the link existing between the conscience and the act. This comment ends by underlining the manner - non-applicable but not for this reason to be underrated as merely relativistic - of the process of discernment, understood as being an act of the conscience which, when faced with a concrete situation, responds to the appeal of God in the particular relationship. (English) Sullo sfondo del grande dibattito suscitato dall’esortazione Amoris laetitia l’articolo mette a tema lo studio del nesso tra coscienza, norma e discernimento nella teologia morale, in riferimento al cap. VIII di AL e con particolare riguardo al rapporto tra oggettivo e soggettivo. A tale proposito, vengono anzitutto prese in considerazione le critiche alla deriva soggettivistica dell’esortazione apostolica formulate da parte dei quattro cardinali, con i famosi cinque Dubia, e si propone una lettura dell’interpretazione tomista del nesso tra oggetto (atto) e soggetto (intenzione). Nell’intento di superare l’alternativa tra l’oggettività della normae la soggettività del giudizio di coscienza, l’articolo propone un ripensa mento teorico del nesso tra oggettivo e soggettivo, interpretandolo non più a procedere dal rapporto tra coscienza e norma, ma come il nesso tra coscienza e atto. La riflessione si conclude sottolineando le modalità non applicative, ma non per questo relativistiche, del processo del discernimento, inteso come l’atto della coscienza che, nella situazione concreta, risponde all’appello di Dio che si da nella sua storia. |
