| Summary: | This text analyses the relevance of the 1968 revolution in the context of the crisis of values in Western Europe and the response of Pope Benedict XVI to these challenges. The author shows that this revolution, inspired by Sartre’s existentialism and Marxism, had a profound impact on contemporary culture, challenging the traditional Christian understanding of man, God, and freedom. In response, Benedict XVI stressed the importance of a personal relationship with Jesus Christ as the foundation of an authentic faith, the only real alternative to the ideology of absolute freedom, and proposed Christianity as the path to true freedom, underpinned by the love of God.
