Today children are disposed of because there is no food or because they are killed before being born โ children are discarded. The elderly are disposed of, well, because they are useless, they do not produce, neither children nor the elderly produce; then, with more or less sophisticated systems they are slowly abandoned and now, as in this crisis it is necessary to recover some equilibrium, we are witnessing a third very painful discarding โthe discarding of young people. Millions of young peopleโฆ are discarded from work, are unemployed.
Pope FrancisThe only way to heal is to look at the Cross, to look at God Who takes upon Himself our sins: my sin is there.
Pope FrancisDon't be afraid to go against the current, when they want to steal our hope, when they propose rotten values to us, values like food that has gone bad-and when food has gone bad it makes us sick, these values make us sick. We have to go against the current! And you, young people, be the first: Go against the grain and be proud of going against the grain. Go on, be brave and go against the current! And be proud of doing it!
Pope Francis
