Pope Francis says world economic system inevitably leads to war
By Francis X. Rocca
VATICAN CITY (CNS) — Pope Francis said the world economic system inevitably promotes military conflict as a way to enrich the most powerful nations.
He also condemned religious fundamentalism, defended the controversial record of Pope Pius XII and said he does not worry about his personal security because, “at my age I don’t have much to lose.”
Pope Francis’ words appeared in a wide-ranging interview published June 12 in the Spanish daily La Vanguardia.
