Pope Francis and Frederic Ozanam

In their own words…

“We live in the most unequal part of the world, which has grown the most yet reduced misery the least,”  Cardinal Bergoglio said during a gathering of Latin American bishops in 2007. “The unjust distribution of goods persists, creating a situation of social sin that cries out to Heaven and limits the possibilities of a fuller life for so many of our brothers.” Pope Francis

“The question which divides men in our time  is no longer a question of political systems. It  is a social question: that is of knowing which  will prevail: the spirit of selfishness or the spirit  of sacrifice? Whether society is to be simply a  great opportunity of exploitation for the benefit  of the strongest or a dedication of everyone for  the benefit of all and especially for the protection of the weak. Bl Frederic Ozanam 1836
