From the Paper:

"Faith is founded on mysteries. Christians simply accept the facts of the Virgin Birth, the Immaculate Conception, Original Sin, and that most central of all the tenets of the religion: the Incarnation of Jesus Christ as both God and Man. That Jesus is at one and the same time, both Divine and human lies at the very core of Christianity. It is a doctrine that many have found difficult to accept. Since the earliest days of their own religion Muslims, for example, have been want to ask the question of how one being can composed of multiples substances and comprise multiple natures."
