Taking into account the suggestions offered in the Encyclical «Fides et Ratio» (1998) and in the «Decree on the reform of ecclesiastical studies of philosophy» (2011), this paper presents some arguments in order to show the importance of philosophy in the priestly formation. Philosophy helps in the search for the truth, forms the critical sense, and structures the mind. Furthermore, the paper underlines the fact that human reason is the faith's condition and constitutive moment and explains why philosophy is indispensable for the theological formation. Finally, the paper highlights the importance of philosophy in the life of the priest as a shepherd. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
