Speaking to four new ambassadors to the Holy See, Pope Francis discussed the reasons for the worldwide financial and economic crisis. He pointed out, “Human beings … are nowadays considered as consumer goods which can be used and thrown away. We have started down the path of a disposable culture.”
He went on to say that this attitude stems from “a rejection of ethics, a rejection of God.”
It is not too difficult to agree with him.
