Paragraph 6. MAN
369
Man
and woman have been created, which is to say, willed by God: on the one hand,
in perfect equality as human persons; on the other, in their respective beings
as man and woman. “Being man” or “being woman” is a reality
which is good and willed by God: man and woman possess an inalienable dignity
which comes to them immediately from God their Creator.240 Man and
woman are both with one and the same dignity “in the image of God”.
In their “being-man” and “being-woman”, they reflect the
Creator’s wisdom and goodness.
