It was a magnet around which Catholic activists gathered, standing on the grounds of acceptance of post-war reality, justifying their stance with political realism, described as neo-positivism. They formed the ideological and political milieu of Znak. An important place in their political thought, formulated in this aspect above all by Stanisław Stomma, Stefan Kisielewski and Antoni Gołubiew, was given to the evaluation of events from the Polish past, especially from the late 18th century to the present. Particularly important was the analysis of the Polish national uprisings that provided arguments for conciliatory and rational attitudes. Over time, however, the group and Stomma himself began to nuance their stance, adopting the thesis of the need to take into account the beliefs prevalent in society, which influenced the stance taken by Stomma and the Znak movement in 1976.
