COMMON HOME: THE HOMO AD-MINISTER WHO MANAGES CREATION

Abstract

This is a narrative research that shows that God created the human being in his image and likeness, created him in love, so that there would be in creation an administrator who cultivates and guards the Garden, our Common Home and, thus, be fruitful and prolific. Creation needs development, and in this sense, human beings participate in God's creation, building themselves up to the image and likeness they received in Creation. The narrative about the human being, administrator and co-creator of God's work, is based on the documents of the Social Doctrine of the Church and on the documents that elucidate the life and experience of the family 'family morals'. It is scored in the dimensions of sociability, economy and parenting, sustaining that this is the basis for the person to be the homo ad-minister. It is emphasized that one is called to dominate creation, caring for, knowing, cultivating and guarding its resources, beauties and mysteries, that is, exercising the dominion that makes it possible to be the lord of the common home, the administrator of God's work. In this sense, caring for nature, creation, is an act of love for one's own life, God's project.
