"The Church does not demand a recognition of her superiority over the State for the promotion of the personal and temporal interests of her rulers, but only for the maintenance of the truth revealed by God, which is for the true interest of the State and the Christian people. She only requires that the recognition of God as the source of every right shall not merely be speculative and theoretical, but practically and truly acted upon by the State, or at least that it shall not be positively contravened, which ever will be and ever has been injurious to the State. We must also remember the incontrovertible theological principle that Grace does not destroy Nature, that the supernatural order does not annul the natural order. The Church could not possibly exercise everywhere the functions of the civil power, just as little as the civil power could exercise the functions of the Church. The Church needs the State as the State needs the Church."
