the Latin term for divine love.

Caritas (Latin) is a term in Christian theology (one of the three theological virtues), meaning loving kindness towards others; it is held to be the ultimate perfection of the human spirit, because it is said to both glorify and reflect the nature of God. In its most extreme form charity can be self-sacrificial. It was used in the Vulgate Bible as the translation of the Greek term agape, and was translated in the earliest English bibles as "charity."

Caritas is a fictional demon-friendly karaoke bar in the U.S. television series Angel. Caritas makes its first appearance in season two's "Judgment" episode, and its final appearance in season three's "Lullaby".

Caritas Internationalis (Chinese: 明愛) is a confederation of 162 Catholic relief, development and social service organisations operating in over 200 countries and territories worldwide.

Caritas was a Ponzi scheme in the early 1990s in Romania.
