CONVERSION - Do we get it? Is it really so important?

From The Magnificat

[The human being, in all ages of history,] resists the consequence of the mystery made flesh, for if this Event is true, then all aspects of life, including the sensible and the social, must revolve around it. And it is precisely man’s perception of being undermined, no longer being the measure of his own self, that places him in the position of refusal.

— Monsignor Luigi Giussani

I am repeating this quote from the other day, stressing today the universality of our condition.
