Meeting with a delegation from the Catholic Foundation of Verona, Pope Francis reaffirms the moral obligation based on the Church's social doctrine to use financial resources to serve the common good and condemns investments in the arms industry. Pope Francis on Saturday strongly reaffirmed the ethical responsibility of using financial resources for the betterment of humanity.
He contrasted this approach with the"madness" of investing in industries, such as arms manufacturing, that profit from destruction and death.The Pope reminded the delegation, whose Foundation supports non-profit organizations and social ventures for the benefit of local communities, that humanity’s role on Earth is one of"stewardship," not"ownership."
In his address, Pope Francis acknowledged the Catholic Foundation’s commitment to solidarity, especially praising its work in aiding families and young people in collaboration with the Diocese of Verona. Instead, the Pope called on wealth to be used in ways that enhance human dignity and serve the common good. He warned that when wealth is hoarded or invested against the good of people, it “grows old and weighs down the heart, making it hard and deaf to the cries of the poor,” who are the"first victims of selfishness,” he said
