Abstract
This article presents an outline of a portion of Fulton Sheen’s spiritual proposal, based on the determination of the most capital pairs of spiritual extremes that, tearing apart nowadays’ Christian and human spiritual life, need to be avoided. For this purpose, and after a brief presentation of the most relevant aspects of Fulton J. Sheen’s public life, which is unknown and (or) distorted by so many people, the author moves to give a list of such pairs and, subsequently, a reflection about the assumptions, nature and abilities of a spiritual life that isn’t seduced by them.
