Overview
The U.S. Catholic bishops' 1983 pastoral The Challenge of Peace has two purposes: to help form individual consciences and to offer moral guidance in a public policy debate. The author concludes that the bishops need to exercise greater oversight to ensure that their pastoral teachings are being properly communicated.
