Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:48,235
"Time flies",
we say, because...
2
00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:52,074
we don 't really understand
what time is.
3
00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:55,470
Days go by,
seasons, years, centuries,
4
00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:57,869
we 're young,
we get old, we die.
5
00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:01,156
We're all subject
to time, but...
6
00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:03,356
we have no control over it.
7
00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:06,637
We 're less in control
than We'd like to think,
anyway:
8
00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:10,429
Earthquakes, floods,
hurricanes wash over us,
9
00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:14,072
but even worse
than those natural disasters
10
00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:15,912
are our self-made ones,
11
00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:19,312
wars, famines, violence,
terrorism,
12
00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:21,072
nuclear catastrophes.
13
00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:26,836
150 species die out
every single day
14
00:02:26,920 --> 00:02:29,354
as a consequence
of our actions.
15
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:33,754
In another couple of
generations,
all sorts of plants,
16
00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:38,032
birds, fish and insects
will be extinct...
17
00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:40,548
forever.
18
00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:48,831
Soon we 7/ number 8 billion
people on our planet,
19
00:02:48,920 --> 00:02:51,480
more than 1 billion
of them hungry.
20
00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:55,755
There are ways to lift them
out of poverty, only...
21
00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:57,592
this is not happening.
22
00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:00,869
So, what can we do?
23
00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:04,748
How should we live... today?
24
00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:08,068
How can we live in peace,
25
00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:10,720
with each other,
with our planet?
26
00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:17,353
One man had radical answers
to all these questions.
27
00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:20,918
He lived here:
in this small town
28
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:23,639
in the Umbrian mountains
of central ltaly,
29
00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:25,392
800 years ago:
30
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:29,153
Saint Francis...of Assisi.
31
00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:33,795
He was a revolutionary,
not only of Christianity,
32
00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:35,996
but of humankind at large.
33
00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:42,398
In this basilica,
erected in his honor
34
00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:44,357
shortly after he died,
35
00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:47,713
we find a series
of colorful frescoes,
painted...
36
00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:50,030
by the great Master Giotto,
37
00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:52,315
which tell the life
of the saint,
38
00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:55,153
like in a huge sacred
comic strip.
39
00:03:57,360 --> 00:04:00,238
In this image,
we see a decisive moment.
40
00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:03,992
Francis is praying
in an abandoned chapel,
41
00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:07,595
urgently searching for
a better purpose in his life.
42
00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:11,431
The prospect of just...
inheriting the business
of his father,
43
00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:14,632
a rich merchant in Assisi,
frightens him.
44
00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:20,390
Suddenly, he hears a voice
speak to him from the cross.
45
00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:25,598
"Francis, go and restore...
my house!
46
00:04:26,280 --> 00:04:28,748
It is falling into...
ruins... "
47
00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:37,117
"Restore my house",
48
00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:39,756
what could that mean?
49
00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:43,190
Was he asked to restore...
the church itself?
50
00:04:44,280 --> 00:04:47,875
lt dawns on Francis
that a fundamental change
51
00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:50,758
can only be brought about
by taking the Gospel...
52
00:04:50,840 --> 00:04:52,273
seriously.
53
00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:56,316
He decides to live his life
in total poverty,
54
00:04:57,040 --> 00:05:01,079
without any possessions,
in solidarity with the poor,
55
00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:03,913
the sick and the outcast,
like Jesus,
56
00:05:05,280 --> 00:05:06,838
as a sign that a complete...
57
00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:10,549
transformation of attitudes
is... needed.
58
00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:15,431
He and his order will give
an example for
a new brotherhood of men
59
00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:17,556
dedicated to the common good.
60
00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:21,599
And isn't that exactly
what is needed today?
61
00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:26,588
Good evening, all of you.
62
00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:31,917
You came walking here,
63
00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:35,676
making yourway
through the city
64
00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:37,598
from all sides.
65
00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:42,039
The people who saw you,
asked themselves:
66
00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:45,518
"What are they doing?"
67
00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:48,108
"We walk with Christ
68
00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:50,511
to go
and celebrate the Father."
69
00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:54,634
In our city,
there are families
that are divided,
70
00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:57,713
hearts that have grown apart.
71
00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:02,590
But we are brothers and lwant
to ask you for a sign.
72
00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:06,315
A gesture that makes us feel
like brothers,
73
00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:09,752
but at the same time
as 'yeast',
74
00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:12,190
as a fermentation
of fraternity,
75
00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:14,192
of brotherhood in our city.
76
00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:17,558
Now, when we
hug like brothers,
77
00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:20,229
giving each other fraternal
peace,
78
00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:25,160
we give a sign
to this city of Buenos Aires
79
00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:28,393
that it's better
to be united as brothers,
80
00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:33,039
than be distant, estranged and
angry.
81
00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:36,478
Now let's give each other
a brotherly embrace.
82
00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:04,714
Good evening!
83
00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:10,354
You know
84
00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:12,512
that the conclave had to
85
00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:15,754
give a Bishop to Rome.
86
00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:17,959
It seems that
87
00:07:19,080 --> 00:07:21,071
my brother Cardinals
88
00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:25,035
went almost to the end of the
world to find one.
89
00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:27,192
But here we are.
90
00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:32,354
Yes here we are,
all of us.
91
00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:33,953
With great expectations...
92
00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:36,793
of the first Pope
from the Americas.
93
00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:39,269
The first“.
from the Southern hemisphere.
94
00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:41,157
The first Jesuit.
95
00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:42,719
But most of all...
96
00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:46,679
the first Pope ever
to choose the name of Francis.
97
00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:51,989
What is it going to take
to blow a Franciscan breeze
98
00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:54,355
into the world again,
99
00:07:54,440 --> 00:07:57,034
other than courage
and humility?
100
00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:02,998
The world today
101
00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:08,076
is mostly deaf.
102
00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:15,272
And I think that among
ourselves, the priests,
103
00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:17,796
there are many deaf ones.
104
00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:22,839
I'm talking about getting
involved in people's lives,
105
00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:26,158
lam talking about closeness.
106
00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:28,479
Talk little,
107
00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:30,558
listen a lot,
108
00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:32,353
sayjust enough,
109
00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:34,756
and always look people in the
eye.
110
00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:39,834
This closeness of a priest
111
00:08:40,680 --> 00:08:45,549
reflects an attitude
of spiritual tenderness,
112
00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:48,629
which is what God has for us.
113
00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:01,995
Why did you want to be Pope?
114
00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:07,710
Do you know what it means
115
00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:12,991
when a person
doesn't really love himself?
116
00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:17,110
Somebody who has the desire
to become Pope,
117
00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:19,397
doesn't like himself.
118
00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:21,751
And God doesn't bless him.
119
00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:25,475
No, l neverwanted to become
Pope.
120
00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:27,235
Is that okay?
121
00:09:29,680 --> 00:09:31,989
You, Francis, why
122
00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:36,148
have you renounced
the riches of a Pope,
123
00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:40,911
like a luxurious apartment,
124
00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:44,113
Of an enormous car?
125
00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:49,116
Instead you prefer
a small apartment nearby,
126
00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:52,353
and you even
take the bus for bishops.
127
00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:53,948
Why have you
128
00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:58,470
renounced to wealth?
129
00:10:00,440 --> 00:10:01,714
Well,
130
00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:03,793
I believe that
131
00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:08,160
our times tell us
132
00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:11,670
of such poverty all over the
world,
133
00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:14,915
and that is a scandal!
134
00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:17,118
In a world where
135
00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:21,439
we have such riches,
136
00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:25,634
so many resources
for giving food to everybody,
137
00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:28,071
you cannot understand
138
00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:32,393
how there can be
so many hungry children,
139
00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:35,872
so many children without
education,
140
00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:38,555
so many poor!
141
00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:43,634
The poverty today
is an outrage!
142
00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:47,277
We must all consider
143
00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:52,760
if we can't become
a little bit poorer.
144
00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:56,314
This is something we all must
do:
145
00:10:56,720 --> 00:10:58,119
not have so many things,
146
00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:00,277
and become a bit poorer.
147
00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:11,829
In the first interview I gave,
148
00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:15,798
in which I saluted the
journalists
149
00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:19,473
who covered the conclave,
150
00:11:19,880 --> 00:11:21,518
three years ago,
151
00:11:24,160 --> 00:11:27,755
a declaration
came straight from my heart:
152
00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:33,669
How much I wanted
a poor church for the poor!
153
00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:39,991
Jesus tells us in the Gospel
154
00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:44,519
that no one can serve two
masters.
155
00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:50,755
We either serve God
orwe serve money.
156
00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:55,875
And the big temptation
157
00:11:57,040 --> 00:12:02,160
that was felt
throughout history
158
00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:06,239
by Christians, by man,
159
00:12:07,680 --> 00:12:09,272
and by the Church,
160
00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:11,559
has always been wealth.
161
00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:19,914
In the Church there are men,
162
00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:24,072
who have yielded,
and are still yielding
163
00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:27,113
to those temptations.
164
00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:32,919
Dear Brothers.
165
00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:36,512
It is good
to think of the Roman Curia
166
00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:39,519
as a small model
of the Church,
167
00:12:39,880 --> 00:12:41,359
or as a 'body'
168
00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:44,393
that strives seriously, every
day,
169
00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:46,193
to be more alive,
170
00:12:46,560 --> 00:12:49,028
more healthy, more harmonious
171
00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:52,113
and more united in itself
and with Christ.
172
00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:56,511
However, since the Curia is a
dynamic body,
173
00:12:56,920 --> 00:13:00,151
it cannot live without
nourishment
174
00:13:00,520 --> 00:13:02,590
and without healing.
175
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:06,036
Like any body,
176
00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:08,798
like any human body,
177
00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:12,152
it is also
exposed to diseases,
178
00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:14,399
to malfunctioning,
179
00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:16,153
to infirmity.
180
00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:18,189
Here
181
00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:22,593
I'd like to mention
some of these
probable diseases.
182
00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:26,189
There are diseases and
temptations
183
00:13:26,560 --> 00:13:29,870
that weaken our service to the
Lord.
184
00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:34,914
Let's begin with the disease
of thinking we are 'immortal',
185
00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:36,389
'immune',
186
00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:38,751
or downright 'indispensable',
187
00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:42,717
neglecting the need
for regular check-ups.
188
00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:46,000
A Curia which is not
self-critical,
189
00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:47,873
which doesn't update
190
00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:49,832
or seeks to improve itself,
191
00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:51,997
is a sick body.
192
00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:58,796
The disease of rivalry
and vaingloriousness...
193
00:13:59,960 --> 00:14:04,033
The disease of 'closed
circles'. ..
194
00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:08,871
The disease ofa lugubrious
face...
195
00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:14,471
The disease of
'existential schizophrenia.‘
196
00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:19,999
The 'spiritual Alzheimer's
disease'...
197
00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:22,309
And lastly:
198
00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:25,516
The disease of 'hoarding'.
199
00:14:26,520 --> 00:14:31,674
When an apostle tries to fill
an existential void
in his heart
200
00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:34,794
by accumulating
material goods,
201
00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:40,029
but only in order to feel
secure.
202
00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:50,995
As long as there's a church
that places its hope
203
00:14:52,680 --> 00:14:54,318
on wealth,
204
00:14:56,560 --> 00:14:57,675
Jesus
205
00:14:58,560 --> 00:15:00,232
is not there.
206
00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:05,515
I say it again:
207
00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:10,989
as long as the church
is placing its hope on wealth,
208
00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:14,074
Jesus is not there.
209
00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:18,991
It's an NGO
210
00:15:22,240 --> 00:15:26,074
for charity or culture,
211
00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:28,950
but it's not the church of
Jesus.
212
00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:34,438
Poverty is at the center
of the gospel!
213
00:16:04,080 --> 00:16:05,672
In 1970,
214
00:16:06,280 --> 00:16:09,033
I had to travel
215
00:16:09,720 --> 00:16:12,473
to a meeting
of teachers for novices.
216
00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:14,990
I'm talking about 1970.
217
00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:19,712
In the city where this took
place
218
00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:25,590
they gave me a tour,
219
00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:28,398
and for the first time
220
00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:32,910
I saw a gated community.
221
00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:37,876
A protected neighborhood,
222
00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:41,271
separated from the rest.
223
00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:46,835
I could not understand that,
224
00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:51,116
because in Argentina
I had not yet seen this.
225
00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:55,910
Today they have lots of those.
226
00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:01,231
That is the effect!
227
00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:05,510
We take a small land for
ourselves,
228
00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:07,719
for a small group,
229
00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:11,074
and the rest have to get by
230
00:17:12,600 --> 00:17:16,195
with the scraps
of Mother Earth
that we left behind.
231
00:17:26,760 --> 00:17:30,116
Dear Brothers and Sisters.
232
00:17:30,520 --> 00:17:32,511
Good morning!
233
00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:39,433
How good is it to be welcomed
234
00:17:40,120 --> 00:17:44,716
with love, generosity and joy.
235
00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:49,993
When we're generous
in welcoming people,
236
00:17:50,360 --> 00:17:56,230
and sharing with them
some food, a place
in our homes, our time,
237
00:17:56,600 --> 00:17:59,558
we no longer remain poor,
238
00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:02,315
we are enriched.
239
00:18:03,120 --> 00:18:07,079
I know when someone who needs
food
240
00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:09,232
knocks at your door
241
00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:12,438
you always find a way
242
00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:15,030
ofsharing your meal.
243
00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:18,195
As the saying goes:
244
00:18:18,560 --> 00:18:22,633
"You can always add
more water to the beans."
245
00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:29,516
Can one add
more water to the beans?!
246
00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:32,109
Always?
247
00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:33,515
Always!
248
00:18:33,760 --> 00:18:36,115
The Pope is with you!
249
00:19:11,800 --> 00:19:12,869
Holiness,
250
00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:14,309
I'm a worker,
251
00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:16,278
my name is Michele.
252
00:19:16,920 --> 00:19:19,229
My status as worker,
253
00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:22,832
cannot prevent me
from asking, Holiness,
254
00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:26,397
for a plea, on behalf ofall
those who have ajob,
255
00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:28,878
and we are less and less,
256
00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:32,717
for all those who've lost it,
257
00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:34,638
and they are many,
258
00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:38,519
and for those
who haven't yet found work,
259
00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:40,632
and those are plenty.
260
00:19:41,360 --> 00:19:45,638
We need to believe
that work Is sacred.
261
00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:48,033
Thankyou, Holiness.
262
00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:52,629
Think about it
263
00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:57,989
that among young people
of 25 or less
264
00:19:59,120 --> 00:20:03,910
more than 40% don't have work!
265
00:20:05,640 --> 00:20:08,757
What do young people do
without a job?
266
00:20:09,120 --> 00:20:10,678
What future do they have?
267
00:20:11,160 --> 00:20:13,276
What path of life do they
choose?
268
00:20:14,760 --> 00:20:16,478
This is serious!
269
00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:20,316
When you don't earn the bread,
270
00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:22,477
you lose your dignity!
271
00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:25,440
This lack of work...
272
00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:28,556
This lack of work
273
00:20:28,920 --> 00:20:31,275
robs us of dignity!
274
00:20:32,640 --> 00:20:35,393
We must fight for this,
275
00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:39,395
we must defend our dignity,
276
00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:43,833
as citizens, as men and women,
as young people.
277
00:20:45,240 --> 00:20:48,038
That is the tragedy
of our time.
278
00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:51,951
We must not remain silent.
279
00:20:54,080 --> 00:20:55,479
No!
280
00:20:59,080 --> 00:21:01,719
The way to escape consumerism,
281
00:21:02,080 --> 00:21:03,115
this corruption,
282
00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:05,476
this competitiveness,
283
00:21:06,120 --> 00:21:09,715
this being enslaved to money,
284
00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:15,233
is the concreteness
of day-to-day work,
285
00:21:15,600 --> 00:21:17,511
is tangible reality!
286
00:21:18,560 --> 00:21:21,154
I like to talk about the three
'T's:
287
00:21:24,120 --> 00:21:26,031
'trabajo' ,
288
00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:29,830
'tierra' and 'techo'.
289
00:21:31,640 --> 00:21:34,916
'Roof' means home, family.
290
00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:39,073
Recovering
this sense of family.
291
00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:43,875
'Land' means work,
292
00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:47,354
cultivating the land.
293
00:21:49,320 --> 00:21:52,676
And work mean precisely
294
00:21:53,520 --> 00:21:56,080
the most noble thing that man
has:
295
00:21:58,800 --> 00:22:01,314
to imitate God with your hands
296
00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:03,279
by creating!
297
00:22:05,360 --> 00:22:07,396
Those three T's...
298
00:22:07,960 --> 00:22:10,315
many of us take them
for granted:
299
00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:13,915
enough to eat and drink,
a home, a steady work.
300
00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:18,437
They're basic human rights
that everybody should have
access to.
301
00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:21,080
However, because that is
not the case,
302
00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:23,993
Pope Francis
in his first year in office
303
00:22:24,080 --> 00:22:25,149
My brother!
304
00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:28,272
created a forum
of popular movements
and grassroots organizations,
305
00:22:28,360 --> 00:22:32,672
representing farmers,
workers and indigenous people.
306
00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:38,198
Now he visits them
a year later
on his home continent.
307
00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:46,230
Sisters, brothers,
308
00:22:46,840 --> 00:22:48,159
good evening.
309
00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:49,949
I want to clarify,
310
00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:52,993
that I am speaking
about common problems
311
00:22:53,400 --> 00:22:56,551
of all Latin Americans
312
00:22:56,920 --> 00:22:59,992
and generally
of humanity as a whole.
313
00:23:00,920 --> 00:23:04,674
Do we recognize, in all
sincerity, that things are not
going well?
314
00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:09,073
In a world where there are
so many farmers without land,
315
00:23:09,480 --> 00:23:11,391
so many families
without a home,
316
00:23:11,760 --> 00:23:14,433
so many workers
without rights,
317
00:23:14,800 --> 00:23:18,509
so many persons
whose dignity is harmed?
318
00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:21,953
Do we realize
that things don't go well,
319
00:23:22,320 --> 00:23:25,198
when soil, water and air
320
00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:27,670
and all living beings of
creation
321
00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:31,072
are under permanent threat?
322
00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:34,719
So, ifwe realize all this,
323
00:23:35,440 --> 00:23:37,237
let's say it without fear:
324
00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:38,908
we need,
325
00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:41,077
and we want change!
326
00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:47,313
We want change in our lives,
327
00:23:47,680 --> 00:23:49,079
in our neighborhoods,
328
00:23:49,480 --> 00:23:50,833
in our paychecks,
329
00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:53,071
and in our everyday reality.
330
00:23:53,520 --> 00:23:55,272
Let's say 'Nol'
331
00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:59,998
to an economy
of exclusion and inequality
332
00:24:00,360 --> 00:24:02,112
where money rules
333
00:24:02,520 --> 00:24:04,431
instead of serving.
334
00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:07,268
This economy kills!
335
00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:09,949
This economy excludes.
336
00:24:10,360 --> 00:24:14,672
The economy destroys Mother
Earth.
337
00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:27,876
A mother and her children,
338
00:24:29,240 --> 00:24:32,152
the common house and its
inhabitants
339
00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:35,233
go together,
340
00:24:37,320 --> 00:24:38,435
they go together.
341
00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:43,038
Mother Earth,
342
00:24:43,400 --> 00:24:46,392
'Sister Earth',
as Saint Francis called her.
343
00:24:47,640 --> 00:24:50,200
That's why I started the
encyclical
344
00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:53,792
with the hymn
of Saint Francis.
345
00:24:57,080 --> 00:24:58,433
They go together.
346
00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:00,876
And iftoday you ask me:
347
00:25:02,320 --> 00:25:03,309
for you,
348
00:25:03,720 --> 00:25:08,840
who is the poorest
of the poorest or the poor,
349
00:25:10,120 --> 00:25:12,429
I would say: Mother Earth!
350
00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:15,756
We have plundered her!
351
00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:18,596
We have abused her!
352
00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:35,550
in June 2015, something
unprecedented is happening:
353
00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:40,155
A letter by a pope
is read by the entire world,
354
00:25:40,240 --> 00:25:42,674
not only by Catholics
or Christians.
355
00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:46,995
in his encyclical
on the environment,
356
00:25:47,120 --> 00:25:50,476
subtitled "On Care
for our Common Home",
357
00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:53,673
Pope Francis urges us
to understand
358
00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:58,709
that protecting the planet
is our most
pressing task today.
359
00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:06,237
it is not a coincidence
that "Laudato Si" comes out
a few months before
360
00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:10,279
the much anticipated Summit
on Climate Control in Paris.
361
00:26:11,880 --> 00:26:13,472
The world is stunned.
362
00:26:14,120 --> 00:26:18,113
Who would have expected
the Vatican to be so explicit
363
00:26:18,280 --> 00:26:22,876
and to denounce
the reckless exploitation
of our planet so directly,
364
00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:26,716
backed up so thoroughly
by facts and numbers?
365
00:26:28,520 --> 00:26:30,158
Like on a big canvas,
366
00:26:30,240 --> 00:26:32,879
the Pope's concerns
are even projected
367
00:26:32,960 --> 00:26:36,589
right onto the facade
of St. Peter's Basilica.
368
00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:23,518
The theology
contained in 'Laudato Si'
369
00:27:24,240 --> 00:27:26,310
is in dialogue with science.
370
00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:29,874
Today, well never,
could you practice theology
371
00:27:30,280 --> 00:27:32,032
without a dialogue
with science.
372
00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:33,435
More than that:
373
00:27:33,800 --> 00:27:36,598
God gave us the capacity
for investigation,
374
00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:40,749
the intellectual ability
to look for truths.
375
00:27:42,160 --> 00:27:43,639
Obviously
376
00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:48,755
the biblical story of creation
377
00:27:49,120 --> 00:27:53,477
is a mythical
form of expression
378
00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:55,671
to explain what happened.
379
00:27:56,640 --> 00:27:58,551
But it is a development,
380
00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:00,751
an evolution.
381
00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:05,192
God, when
382
00:28:06,120 --> 00:28:10,113
he sent Man to dominate the
Earth,
383
00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:13,711
entrusted something
uncultivated to him.
384
00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:15,915
So, man began
385
00:28:16,280 --> 00:28:20,068
transforming the uncultivated
into something cultivated.
386
00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:23,359
This is what we understand
as progress in science,
387
00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:25,159
in art,
388
00:28:25,960 --> 00:28:27,518
in technology,
389
00:28:27,920 --> 00:28:30,115
in scientific research,
390
00:28:30,520 --> 00:28:32,715
that man is transforming
391
00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:37,712
this not-knowing, this lack of
culture into culture.
392
00:28:38,080 --> 00:28:39,433
We are all called upon,
393
00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:42,758
notjust Adam and Eve,
all of us, to create culture.
394
00:28:43,520 --> 00:28:45,636
But when someone feels
395
00:28:46,800 --> 00:28:50,759
that he owns this culture
and feels all-powerful,
396
00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:53,037
the temptation arises
397
00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:54,719
to go further,
398
00:28:55,120 --> 00:28:56,997
and destroy the culture.
399
00:28:58,880 --> 00:29:00,552
Think of the feat
400
00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:04,117
of the discovery of nuclear
energy;
401
00:29:04,480 --> 00:29:06,436
and think of Hiroshima.
402
00:29:19,880 --> 00:29:23,589
In all religions
403
00:29:24,040 --> 00:29:28,556
the environment
is a fundamental good.
404
00:29:30,160 --> 00:29:35,234
Its abuse and destruction,
however,
405
00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:37,637
are accompanied
406
00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:43,194
by a continuous process
of exclusion.
407
00:29:45,360 --> 00:29:47,032
The poorest
408
00:29:47,760 --> 00:29:51,719
are the ones who suffer most
from the attacks
409
00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:54,799
for three serious reasons:
410
00:29:55,880 --> 00:29:58,952
they are discarded by society,
411
00:29:59,480 --> 00:30:00,959
forced at the same time
412
00:30:01,520 --> 00:30:05,069
to live on the leftovers,
413
00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:09,429
and have to suffer unjustly
414
00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:12,997
from the abuse of the
environment.
415
00:30:13,920 --> 00:30:16,639
These phenomena correspond
416
00:30:17,480 --> 00:30:20,119
to today's widespread
417
00:30:20,480 --> 00:30:23,916
and quietly growing
418
00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:27,312
'culture of waste'.
419
00:31:03,960 --> 00:31:05,473
This is a shame
420
00:31:06,480 --> 00:31:08,391
for each and every one of us!
421
00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:12,629
And we are all responsible!
422
00:31:14,120 --> 00:31:15,872
No one can say:
423
00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:18,756
"I have nothing to do with
this."
424
00:31:20,320 --> 00:31:23,039
We're all responsible.
425
00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:32,393
The 'law of nature',
ifwe call it that,
426
00:31:32,760 --> 00:31:35,877
says that the world
should live in harmony,
427
00:31:36,280 --> 00:31:39,238
that all things
should be in harmony,
428
00:31:39,600 --> 00:31:41,318
the entire creation.
429
00:31:41,680 --> 00:31:46,470
So things that go against
this harmony of creation
430
00:31:46,960 --> 00:31:48,313
are bad!
431
00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:52,433
I think for instance
432
00:31:53,360 --> 00:31:56,397
of water, contaminated
433
00:31:57,280 --> 00:32:00,955
by mining activities
that spill arsenic
and cyanide,
434
00:32:01,320 --> 00:32:02,719
just an example.
435
00:32:03,480 --> 00:32:05,198
All this to the effect that
436
00:32:06,920 --> 00:32:12,074
the surrounding area,
for kilometers,
437
00:32:13,880 --> 00:32:17,475
offers its population water
438
00:32:17,920 --> 00:32:19,797
that caused diseases.
439
00:32:21,680 --> 00:32:26,231
But the government,
allowed that to happen!
440
00:32:26,600 --> 00:32:30,957
So, do I resist fighting
the law that allowed it?
441
00:32:31,320 --> 00:32:34,312
Yes.
I'm protecting a greater good!
442
00:32:34,720 --> 00:32:37,757
The health of that population
443
00:32:38,120 --> 00:32:40,395
and the overall good of
humanity.
444
00:32:43,720 --> 00:32:45,438
The common good,
445
00:32:45,960 --> 00:32:48,599
that's what Saint Francis
had in mind.
446
00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:53,117
The unison and solidarity
of all humanity before God.
447
00:32:53,240 --> 00:32:56,676
As well as our harmony
with nature, with. ,.
448
00:32:56,760 --> 00:33:00,719
"Sister Mother Earth",
as he named her so tenderly...
449
00:33:02,200 --> 00:33:04,953
Saint Francis was
a visionary in his time.
450
00:33:05,200 --> 00:33:10,115
He realized very early on
that humanity's relationship
to nature
451
00:33:10,200 --> 00:33:14,637
was getting out of balance,
that we were, well,
we are still...
452
00:33:14,760 --> 00:33:17,752
today looking at our planet
upside down,
453
00:33:17,840 --> 00:33:21,355
as its masters,
not its caretakers.
454
00:33:24,160 --> 00:33:28,039
Saint Francis wrote the first
poem in the Italian language.
455
00:33:28,600 --> 00:33:32,149
In his
"Canticle of the... Sun"
he praised God
456
00:33:32,280 --> 00:33:33,872
through all creation.
457
00:33:35,320 --> 00:33:38,551
"Most High,
all-powerful, good Lord,
458
00:33:39,240 --> 00:33:42,277
yours are the praises,
the glory...
459
00:33:42,720 --> 00:33:44,676
the honor and all blessings.
460
00:33:45,880 --> 00:33:49,395
To you alone, Most High,
do they belong.
461
00:33:50,920 --> 00:33:54,356
Be praised, my Lord,
through all your creatures,
462
00:33:55,120 --> 00:33:58,157
especially through my lord
Brother Sun,
463
00:33:58,520 --> 00:34:01,796
who brings the day
and you give light
through him.
464
00:34:04,280 --> 00:34:06,669
Praised be you, my Lord,
465
00:34:07,080 --> 00:34:09,913
through Sister Moon
and the stars.
466
00:34:10,480 --> 00:34:15,508
ln heaven you formed them
clear and precious
and beautiful.
467
00:34:17,360 --> 00:34:21,114
Praised be you, my Lord,
through Brother Wind...
468
00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:25,554
and through the air
cloudy and serene
469
00:34:26,040 --> 00:34:27,871
and every kind of weather
through which
470
00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:30,639
you give sustenance
to your creatures.
471
00:34:33,480 --> 00:34:35,596
Praised be you, my Lord,
472
00:34:36,120 --> 00:34:39,669
through Sister Water,
which is very useful
473
00:34:39,760 --> 00:34:43,389
and humble and precious
and chaste.
474
00:34:45,840 --> 00:34:49,230
Praised be you, my Lord,
through Brother Fire,
475
00:34:49,520 --> 00:34:51,511
through whom you light
the night...
476
00:34:52,200 --> 00:34:56,910
and he is beautiful
and playful
and robust and strong.
477
00:34:58,960 --> 00:35:01,030
Praised be you, my Lord,
478
00:35:01,760 --> 00:35:03,876
through Sister Mother Earth,
479
00:35:03,960 --> 00:35:06,872
who sustains us
and governs us.
480
00:35:13,280 --> 00:35:15,191
Saint Francis, in history,
481
00:35:15,880 --> 00:35:17,393
stands for
482
00:35:19,600 --> 00:35:22,990
a revitalization
of the figure of Christ,
483
00:35:23,880 --> 00:35:27,839
in a completely radical,
absolute way.
484
00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:32,719
His poverty, 'Sister Poverty'.
485
00:35:33,840 --> 00:35:36,354
His love of the poor and the
sick,
486
00:35:36,840 --> 00:35:38,353
and his care for them.
487
00:35:39,920 --> 00:35:41,433
His patience
488
00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:45,709
with people and with their
frailty,
489
00:35:46,680 --> 00:35:50,514
including the frailty
of his brothers and disciples.
490
00:35:53,040 --> 00:35:54,359
A man
491
00:35:55,240 --> 00:35:57,834
of such patience and
understanding
492
00:35:58,240 --> 00:36:00,310
then transforms
493
00:36:01,400 --> 00:36:04,039
into a man of dialogue.
494
00:36:05,400 --> 00:36:09,279
Something I want to point out
about dialogue,
495
00:36:09,680 --> 00:36:11,591
of which Francis had a lot.
496
00:36:12,240 --> 00:36:14,993
And I'll say it
in very simple words:
497
00:36:17,120 --> 00:36:19,429
He was the apostle of the ear.
498
00:36:20,760 --> 00:36:22,955
Knowing how to listen!
499
00:36:27,120 --> 00:36:30,112
At times,
the speed of the modern world,
500
00:36:30,640 --> 00:36:31,993
its frenzy,
501
00:36:32,400 --> 00:36:35,710
keeps us from listening well
502
00:36:36,120 --> 00:36:37,553
to what others are saying.
503
00:36:39,880 --> 00:36:42,075
Someone is halfway through a
dialogue,
504
00:36:42,440 --> 00:36:45,034
and we already interrupt
505
00:36:45,640 --> 00:36:49,952
and want to answer
before the other one
has finished talking.
506
00:36:51,680 --> 00:36:54,513
Not losing the capacity to
listen!
507
00:36:54,880 --> 00:36:58,111
And Francis is a listener.
He listened
to the voice of God,
508
00:36:58,600 --> 00:37:00,352
he listened
to the voice of the poor,
509
00:37:00,720 --> 00:37:04,508
to the voice of the sick,
and to the voice of nature.
510
00:37:05,280 --> 00:37:08,909
And he transformed all of this
into a way of life.
511
00:37:09,320 --> 00:37:13,359
And I hope that the seed of
Francis
512
00:37:13,800 --> 00:37:16,633
grows in many hearts.
513
00:37:33,720 --> 00:37:36,518
Papa Francesco!
514
00:37:56,000 --> 00:37:57,228
You know
515
00:37:57,680 --> 00:38:02,435
who was first declared
a saint in the church?
516
00:38:05,800 --> 00:38:07,358
A prisoner.
517
00:38:09,560 --> 00:38:12,120
He was sentenced to death
518
00:38:13,240 --> 00:38:14,992
next to Christ, who told him:
519
00:38:17,080 --> 00:38:19,196
"Today you will be with me
in paradise!"
520
00:38:20,240 --> 00:38:24,597
Society must learn
from this example of Christ!
521
00:38:25,280 --> 00:38:28,590
We all need to receive
forgiveness.
522
00:38:29,520 --> 00:38:32,751
But God tell us in the bible:
"When He forgives,
523
00:38:33,120 --> 00:38:34,712
He forgets!"
524
00:38:35,120 --> 00:38:39,591
And if I say: "This man is a
sinner, he did that!"
525
00:38:40,000 --> 00:38:41,115
I'm sinning!
526
00:38:41,480 --> 00:38:43,232
Because when He forgets,
527
00:38:43,600 --> 00:38:46,592
who am I not to forget?
528
00:38:47,800 --> 00:38:48,994
Living implies,
529
00:38:50,600 --> 00:38:52,955
getting our feet dirty
530
00:38:54,400 --> 00:38:57,358
from the dust-filled roads of
life.
531
00:38:58,120 --> 00:38:59,792
It is painful to note
532
00:39:00,240 --> 00:39:01,468
that people think
533
00:39:01,840 --> 00:39:03,478
that only a few
534
00:39:04,120 --> 00:39:06,953
need to be washed,
535
00:39:07,560 --> 00:39:10,711
and don't realize
that yourweariness and pain,
536
00:39:11,440 --> 00:39:14,637
yourwounds, are also the
wounds,
537
00:39:15,120 --> 00:39:17,190
of an entire society.
538
00:39:17,880 --> 00:39:20,110
The Lord shows this to us
clearly
539
00:39:20,480 --> 00:39:22,869
with the help of a gesture:
540
00:39:23,800 --> 00:39:25,153
He washes ourfeet
541
00:39:25,520 --> 00:39:27,238
so we can come back to the
table.
542
00:39:28,640 --> 00:39:32,474
A table
that is spread for all,
543
00:39:33,040 --> 00:39:35,759
and to which
we all are invited.
544
00:39:44,760 --> 00:39:47,672
All young people today
are idealists
545
00:39:48,160 --> 00:39:50,435
in the good sense of the word.
546
00:39:50,800 --> 00:39:55,510
But most young people
seek something.
547
00:39:55,960 --> 00:39:59,032
Also when they make mistakes,
548
00:39:59,480 --> 00:40:01,516
even serious mistakes,
lthink,
549
00:40:01,880 --> 00:40:03,950
they're looking for something
else.
550
00:40:04,320 --> 00:40:06,550
And even in their alienation
551
00:40:07,320 --> 00:40:09,754
young people are expressing
552
00:40:10,120 --> 00:40:12,953
their non-conformism
553
00:40:13,800 --> 00:40:15,870
with the world
they have to live in.
554
00:40:16,240 --> 00:40:18,196
They get estranged.
555
00:40:19,400 --> 00:40:20,879
I'd even dare to say something
556
00:40:21,240 --> 00:40:23,276
that some might not like,
557
00:40:23,680 --> 00:40:25,636
about drug addiction.
558
00:40:26,040 --> 00:40:29,157
When young people
fall victim to an addiction,
559
00:40:29,560 --> 00:40:31,869
it's because there is in their
heart
560
00:40:32,280 --> 00:40:33,713
a dissatisfaction.
561
00:40:34,080 --> 00:40:37,197
The model of Francis
shows them a way,
562
00:40:38,000 --> 00:40:41,037
a revolutionary path.
563
00:40:43,080 --> 00:40:45,594
You don't have to be scared
564
00:40:46,520 --> 00:40:49,114
of this world, because in the
Gospel,
565
00:40:50,080 --> 00:40:52,435
when Jesus talks
566
00:40:53,080 --> 00:40:54,798
aboutwhat he came
to bring to Earth,
567
00:40:55,160 --> 00:40:57,390
he used language
just as strong.
568
00:40:59,800 --> 00:41:03,918
A change
in the 'modus vivendi'
569
00:41:05,040 --> 00:41:08,669
at that time, in a conformist
and self-satisfied society
570
00:41:09,040 --> 00:41:13,318
that already cast aside,
571
00:41:14,560 --> 00:41:15,913
rejected those,
572
00:41:16,320 --> 00:41:19,392
that didn't belong
to Its social nucleus.
573
00:41:20,160 --> 00:41:23,232
And Francis
obeyed that calling.
574
00:41:23,600 --> 00:41:27,070
If today
a young person hears Francis,
575
00:41:27,520 --> 00:41:29,715
he feels him touch his heart.
576
00:41:38,320 --> 00:41:43,030
I only ask of God
577
00:41:44,760 --> 00:41:48,514
that I won't become
indifferent to suffering,
578
00:41:51,320 --> 00:41:55,950
so Death will not find me
579
00:41:56,680 --> 00:42:01,549
empty and alone,
not having done enough.
580
00:42:07,040 --> 00:42:12,068
I only ask of God
581
00:42:13,560 --> 00:42:17,838
that I won't become
indifferent to injustice.
582
00:43:22,480 --> 00:43:27,110
The first time we met
was 1969 in Cordoba.
583
00:43:27,640 --> 00:43:30,552
I don't think
he'd seen me among
so many people.
584
00:43:31,280 --> 00:43:33,350
But then
they opened the barrier
585
00:43:34,040 --> 00:43:37,350
and helped me to go down.
586
00:43:37,800 --> 00:43:42,316
And the Pope said,
"No, Maruca, I come to you!"
587
00:43:43,960 --> 00:43:46,190
Then I stood still,
588
00:43:46,960 --> 00:43:48,313
and gave him a hug, too.
589
00:43:48,720 --> 00:43:52,030
He had recognized me from up
there.
590
00:43:52,840 --> 00:43:54,558
That surprised me a lot.
591
00:43:54,920 --> 00:43:56,035
lwas very grateful.
592
00:44:05,280 --> 00:44:06,269
It's really a pity
593
00:44:06,640 --> 00:44:08,915
that he doesn't have time
anymore.
594
00:44:09,320 --> 00:44:11,231
But he has a different mission
here.
595
00:44:12,440 --> 00:44:14,431
He's now the shepherd
of the whole world.
596
00:44:14,800 --> 00:44:16,756
And with his charisma
597
00:44:17,520 --> 00:44:20,956
he appeals not only to
Catholics.
598
00:44:21,720 --> 00:44:24,359
You've seen that
he's the kind of person,
599
00:44:25,960 --> 00:44:29,236
who speaks with everybody.
600
00:44:30,240 --> 00:44:32,834
His life itself is a sermon.
601
00:44:34,200 --> 00:44:39,035
God sends us the Pope that we
need for each stage of the
Earth.
602
00:44:45,320 --> 00:44:47,151
Today, really,
603
00:44:48,560 --> 00:44:53,680
we live with the accelerator
down from morning to night.
604
00:44:55,960 --> 00:44:58,918
This ruins mental health,
605
00:44:59,920 --> 00:45:01,592
spiritual health,
606
00:45:02,000 --> 00:45:03,592
and physical health.
607
00:45:04,080 --> 00:45:07,197
More so:
it affects
and destroys family,
608
00:45:07,560 --> 00:45:09,312
and therefore society.
609
00:45:11,160 --> 00:45:13,071
"0n the Seventh day,
He rested."
610
00:45:14,280 --> 00:45:15,713
What the Jews
611
00:45:17,000 --> 00:45:20,515
followed and still observe,
612
00:45:20,880 --> 00:45:23,110
was to consider the Sabbath as
holy.
613
00:45:24,120 --> 00:45:26,270
On Saturday you rest.
614
00:45:27,840 --> 00:45:29,558
One day of the week,
615
00:45:30,560 --> 00:45:32,073
that's the least!
616
00:45:34,200 --> 00:45:35,713
Out of gratitude,
617
00:45:36,120 --> 00:45:37,792
to worship God,
618
00:45:38,200 --> 00:45:41,112
to spend time
with the family, to play,
619
00:45:42,520 --> 00:45:44,511
to do all these things.
620
00:45:46,840 --> 00:45:48,398
We are not machines!
621
00:45:52,840 --> 00:45:56,196
So when we live
such a fast-paced life,
622
00:45:59,000 --> 00:46:00,513
we lose
623
00:46:02,360 --> 00:46:04,555
our most human gestures.
624
00:46:05,360 --> 00:46:08,193
A husband forgets
625
00:46:10,160 --> 00:46:14,517
the day he got engaged to his
wife,
626
00:46:18,840 --> 00:46:21,752
parents forget
to caress their children
627
00:46:23,320 --> 00:46:24,833
or the grandparents,
628
00:46:25,600 --> 00:46:28,068
because there's no time
for a caress,
629
00:46:28,440 --> 00:46:30,271
there's no time
for tenderness.
630
00:46:30,680 --> 00:46:33,069
There's no time to enjoy life,
631
00:46:33,440 --> 00:46:35,192
which is so beautiful!
632
00:46:42,200 --> 00:46:44,395
Some of you
might say of course,
633
00:46:46,840 --> 00:46:47,909
Father,
634
00:46:50,200 --> 00:46:53,795
you speak like that
because you're not married.
635
00:46:59,400 --> 00:47:01,356
Families have difficulties...
636
00:47:07,320 --> 00:47:09,356
families, we quarrel.
637
00:47:13,600 --> 00:47:15,875
And sometimes plates can fly,
638
00:47:23,280 --> 00:47:26,431
and children bring, uh...
headaches.
639
00:47:30,920 --> 00:47:33,150
Idon'twant to speak
about mother in laws.
640
00:47:38,360 --> 00:47:40,874
In the family
there are indeed difficulties.
641
00:47:43,720 --> 00:47:45,073
But those difficulties,
642
00:47:48,120 --> 00:47:49,872
are overcome with love.
643
00:47:55,400 --> 00:47:57,118
Division of hearts...
644
00:47:57,200 --> 00:47:59,953
cannot overcome
any difficulty.
645
00:48:06,520 --> 00:48:08,954
Never let the day end,
646
00:48:10,680 --> 00:48:13,592
without making peace
with the family.
647
00:48:14,920 --> 00:48:16,433
llike
648
00:48:17,120 --> 00:48:18,633
to hear confession.
649
00:48:19,040 --> 00:48:21,634
Nowadays I do it very little,
650
00:48:22,040 --> 00:48:23,189
I can't.
651
00:48:26,240 --> 00:48:28,390
In Buenos Aires,
I did it a lot,
652
00:48:29,280 --> 00:48:30,998
and people came to confess.
653
00:48:32,040 --> 00:48:36,158
When men orwomen came,
654
00:48:36,680 --> 00:48:38,238
from a young marriage,
655
00:48:39,400 --> 00:48:41,709
and told me about their
children,
656
00:48:42,080 --> 00:48:45,311
I'd ask how many children they
had, they'd tell me,
657
00:48:47,480 --> 00:48:49,789
and then I'd say:
"I have a question."
658
00:48:50,160 --> 00:48:51,957
That scared them a bit.
659
00:48:52,440 --> 00:48:54,670
"What is the priest
going to ask me!"
660
00:48:56,640 --> 00:49:00,713
And the question was: "Do you
play with your children?"
661
00:49:03,800 --> 00:49:07,270
lwant to ask
all fathers and mothers
662
00:49:07,640 --> 00:49:09,358
who are listening:
663
00:49:10,880 --> 00:49:13,713
"Do you play
with your children?
664
00:49:26,320 --> 00:49:29,710
lwould like permission
to ask a delicate question:
665
00:49:30,200 --> 00:49:31,599
How does Your Holiness
666
00:49:31,960 --> 00:49:35,077
intend to confront
the question of the gay lobby?
667
00:49:38,560 --> 00:49:40,073
If a person is gay,
668
00:49:40,440 --> 00:49:42,192
and is searching for the Lord,
669
00:49:42,560 --> 00:49:43,629
and has good will,
670
00:49:44,040 --> 00:49:45,837
then who am ltojudge him?
671
00:49:48,680 --> 00:49:52,434
We must be brothers to each
other...
672
00:49:53,480 --> 00:49:55,277
The Catechism of the Catholic
Church
673
00:49:55,640 --> 00:49:57,676
explains this beautifully.
674
00:49:58,920 --> 00:50:04,040
It says: no one
should be marginalized
forthis,
675
00:50:04,960 --> 00:50:07,554
they should be integrated
into society.
676
00:50:13,480 --> 00:50:16,438
Women have a distinctly
different way of looking at
things than men.
677
00:50:16,840 --> 00:50:20,753
I've had consultation meetings
678
00:50:21,160 --> 00:50:22,639
about a given problem
679
00:50:23,200 --> 00:50:25,236
with male members,
680
00:50:26,280 --> 00:50:30,068
and then the same with female
members.
681
00:50:32,200 --> 00:50:37,274
And the input of women
is extraordinarily rich!
682
00:50:37,960 --> 00:50:39,473
It's necessary!
683
00:50:40,200 --> 00:50:43,272
The world cannot move fonrvard
684
00:50:43,680 --> 00:50:46,399
if there is no complementarity
685
00:50:46,800 --> 00:50:49,439
or reciprocity
686
00:50:51,080 --> 00:50:52,911
reciprocidad between men and
women.
687
00:50:53,800 --> 00:50:55,392
Obviously,
688
00:50:56,440 --> 00:51:00,399
the macho
and feminist movements
are of no help,
689
00:51:00,760 --> 00:51:03,797
because they are isolated
movements.
690
00:51:04,200 --> 00:51:06,475
The useful movements are those
based
691
00:51:06,840 --> 00:51:10,594
on reciprocal
and complementary approaches.
692
00:51:11,000 --> 00:51:13,389
We have to integrate women!
693
00:51:13,960 --> 00:51:17,236
Because a world without
694
00:51:17,600 --> 00:51:21,832
the leadership,
advice and vision of women
695
00:51:22,200 --> 00:51:23,838
cannot advance.
696
00:51:27,160 --> 00:51:30,835
Thank you, Holy Father,
foryour availability
under these circumstances.
697
00:51:31,640 --> 00:51:33,790
You've spoken out very
forcefully
698
00:51:34,400 --> 00:51:36,231
against the sexual abuse of
minors,
699
00:51:36,640 --> 00:51:38,756
on behalf of the clergy.
700
00:51:39,240 --> 00:51:41,595
You created
a special commission
701
00:51:41,960 --> 00:51:45,635
to better deal with this
problem, at the level of the
universal church.
702
00:51:46,280 --> 00:51:47,349
What would you do,
703
00:51:47,720 --> 00:51:52,350
if a bishopjust didn't
respect these obligations?
704
00:51:53,720 --> 00:51:56,359
The abuse of minors
705
00:51:57,000 --> 00:52:02,120
is an offense so brutal, so...
706
00:52:03,120 --> 00:52:07,796
We know it's a serious
problem everywhere,
707
00:52:08,160 --> 00:52:10,230
but I'm concerned with the
Church!
708
00:52:10,960 --> 00:52:12,279
A priest
709
00:52:12,680 --> 00:52:14,079
who does this
710
00:52:16,000 --> 00:52:18,195
betrays the body of the Lord!
711
00:52:18,600 --> 00:52:23,515
Because this priest
must lead this boy or girl,
712
00:52:23,880 --> 00:52:25,472
or these young people,
713
00:52:25,840 --> 00:52:27,319
to holiness.
714
00:52:29,480 --> 00:52:32,438
These young men and women
trust him,
715
00:52:33,000 --> 00:52:35,468
and instead of leading them to
holiness,
716
00:52:37,000 --> 00:52:38,115
he abuses them.
717
00:52:38,480 --> 00:52:40,311
And this is extremely serious!
718
00:52:42,600 --> 00:52:43,749
The Church
719
00:52:44,120 --> 00:52:45,155
cannot remain
720
00:52:45,520 --> 00:52:46,953
indifferent to this.
721
00:52:47,960 --> 00:52:49,234
Towards pedophilia,
722
00:52:49,640 --> 00:52:51,631
zero tolerance!
723
00:52:55,800 --> 00:52:57,074
And the Church
724
00:52:57,720 --> 00:52:59,472
must punish
725
00:53:00,840 --> 00:53:02,273
such priests
726
00:53:03,440 --> 00:53:04,919
who have that problem,
727
00:53:08,480 --> 00:53:09,799
and bishops
728
00:53:11,520 --> 00:53:15,308
must remove
from their priestly functions
729
00:53:16,040 --> 00:53:18,474
anyone with that disease,
730
00:53:18,880 --> 00:53:20,916
that tendency to pedophila,
731
00:53:23,200 --> 00:53:24,599
and that includes
732
00:53:25,400 --> 00:53:26,799
to support
733
00:53:27,680 --> 00:53:29,193
the legal action
734
00:53:30,680 --> 00:53:31,954
by the parents
735
00:53:33,080 --> 00:53:34,593
before the civil courts.
736
00:53:38,080 --> 00:53:42,596
There is no other way out of
this!
737
00:53:43,840 --> 00:53:45,034
Zero tolerance,
738
00:53:45,440 --> 00:53:46,555
because it's
739
00:53:46,920 --> 00:53:50,230
a crime, no, worse!
740
00:53:50,600 --> 00:53:52,830
It's leaving them alive, but
destroyed.
741
00:55:00,680 --> 00:55:03,956
So many of you have lost
everything.
742
00:55:05,680 --> 00:55:07,910
Idon't know
what to say to you,
743
00:55:08,640 --> 00:55:09,868
only
744
00:55:10,520 --> 00:55:12,238
to keep silence
745
00:55:12,800 --> 00:55:14,233
and accompany you
746
00:55:14,880 --> 00:55:17,030
in my heart, silently.
747
00:55:20,280 --> 00:55:21,872
We are not alone.
748
00:55:22,520 --> 00:55:23,919
We have Jesus,
749
00:55:24,760 --> 00:55:26,398
our older brother.
750
00:55:27,040 --> 00:55:29,838
And we also have
many brothers,
751
00:55:30,280 --> 00:55:31,918
who at the moment
752
00:55:32,640 --> 00:55:34,153
of catastrophe
753
00:55:34,520 --> 00:55:36,556
came to our assistance.
754
00:55:37,760 --> 00:55:41,116
Forgive me ifl have no other
words.
755
00:55:42,040 --> 00:55:44,554
But with the strength
that Jesus gives us,
756
00:55:45,000 --> 00:55:46,592
our older brother,
757
00:55:46,960 --> 00:55:48,552
let us move fonnard.
758
00:55:49,840 --> 00:55:51,114
As brothers,
759
00:55:51,520 --> 00:55:52,919
let us walk together!
760
00:56:13,280 --> 00:56:15,396
Human life is a road
761
00:56:16,440 --> 00:56:17,919
that'll come to an end.
762
00:56:19,560 --> 00:56:22,028
We all die a little every day.
763
00:56:24,680 --> 00:56:25,795
Sometimes,
764
00:56:28,680 --> 00:56:32,468
we avoid thinking about
our own death
765
00:56:34,480 --> 00:56:38,359
and live as if
we're never going to die.
766
00:56:40,800 --> 00:56:42,438
And this is
767
00:56:42,800 --> 00:56:46,395
dangerous, as it doesn't lead
to wisdom.
768
00:56:47,480 --> 00:56:48,879
Two weeks ago,
769
00:56:49,720 --> 00:56:51,039
I got a letter
770
00:56:52,040 --> 00:56:53,758
from the aunt of a boy,
771
00:56:56,200 --> 00:56:57,349
Syears old.
772
00:56:58,440 --> 00:56:59,998
He had cancer.
773
00:57:00,960 --> 00:57:02,279
Terminal.
774
00:57:07,160 --> 00:57:11,073
He told his Mom that he'd like
to talk to Pope Francis.
775
00:57:13,040 --> 00:57:14,598
The mother let me know,
776
00:57:15,720 --> 00:57:16,948
and Icalled.
777
00:57:17,440 --> 00:57:19,317
He was sleeping.
778
00:57:21,320 --> 00:57:24,949
So I left a message on his
mobile.
779
00:57:28,240 --> 00:57:29,832
The next day I didn't call.
780
00:57:31,440 --> 00:57:33,829
The boy said:
"The Pope was offended,
781
00:57:34,200 --> 00:57:36,031
because I didn't answer his
call."
782
00:57:38,400 --> 00:57:39,913
The next day I called again,
783
00:57:40,440 --> 00:57:42,237
he slept, so I left a message.
784
00:57:42,640 --> 00:57:44,073
And that made him happy.
785
00:57:45,960 --> 00:57:48,872
Itried once more
the following day.
786
00:57:49,720 --> 00:57:52,712
This time his mother answered
and said: "He's very sick.
787
00:57:54,160 --> 00:57:56,435
I don't know
if he'll be able to talk."
788
00:57:59,160 --> 00:58:02,470
And she put the phone on
loudspeaker,
789
00:58:04,400 --> 00:58:05,549
I talked to him,
790
00:58:06,760 --> 00:58:10,309
and he said: "Thank you, thank
you!"
791
00:58:12,720 --> 00:58:14,438
A few hours later he died.
792
00:58:16,440 --> 00:58:18,556
That boy knew he was going to
die,
793
00:58:18,960 --> 00:58:20,359
he had the wisdom.
794
00:58:20,960 --> 00:58:22,109
However,
795
00:58:23,320 --> 00:58:26,278
he died, and I want
to underline this word:
796
00:58:26,800 --> 00:58:30,475
he was reconciled with his own
death.
797
00:58:32,440 --> 00:58:34,510
It's very wise to reconcile
ourselves
798
00:58:34,880 --> 00:58:37,235
with the fact
that we will die.
799
00:58:38,000 --> 00:58:40,719
So how do I think about my own
death?
800
00:58:42,280 --> 00:58:44,236
Once I came close,
801
00:58:46,520 --> 00:58:47,839
when lwas young.
802
00:58:52,080 --> 00:58:54,548
l escaped the danger of dying,
803
00:58:55,600 --> 00:58:56,828
but I know that
804
00:58:57,320 --> 00:58:59,709
through the little deaths of
every day
805
00:59:00,080 --> 00:59:01,195
one day...
806
00:59:02,720 --> 00:59:03,869
lwill go.
807
00:59:04,240 --> 00:59:06,390
When? Whenever the Lord wants,
808
00:59:07,480 --> 00:59:09,152
however He wants.
809
00:59:11,040 --> 00:59:12,029
But...
810
00:59:12,440 --> 00:59:13,668
lam not eternal.
811
00:59:14,320 --> 00:59:15,435
Nobody is,
812
00:59:15,800 --> 00:59:17,153
only God.
813
01:00:48,160 --> 01:00:50,310
"Why do the innocents suffer?"
814
01:00:52,040 --> 01:00:53,439
Or the big question
815
01:00:53,800 --> 01:00:55,995
that the great Dostoevsky
asked:
816
01:00:57,280 --> 01:00:59,475
"Why do children suffer?"
817
01:01:03,440 --> 01:01:04,953
It's a question
818
01:01:06,360 --> 01:01:08,237
that we all ask ourselves.
819
01:01:09,040 --> 01:01:12,316
And if you ask me why children
suffer,
820
01:01:13,240 --> 01:01:16,038
the only thing I can say is:
821
01:01:16,680 --> 01:01:19,672
"Look at the Child ofGod on a
cross."
822
01:01:20,560 --> 01:01:23,028
I don't know what other answer
to give to you.
823
01:01:25,600 --> 01:01:28,717
But let's talk about why God
allows it,
824
01:01:29,720 --> 01:01:31,438
which is the core of the
question.
825
01:01:34,760 --> 01:01:36,637
Quite simply, because
826
01:01:37,280 --> 01:01:38,952
he created us as persons,
827
01:01:41,440 --> 01:01:43,192
and as such: free!
828
01:01:44,800 --> 01:01:48,395
God is respectful of freedom.
829
01:01:50,200 --> 01:01:53,272
He allowed his son
to be killed on the cross.
830
01:01:55,280 --> 01:01:57,589
The game of human freedom:
831
01:01:58,280 --> 01:02:00,032
God risked a lot here!
832
01:02:01,920 --> 01:02:03,399
ltwould more
833
01:02:04,920 --> 01:02:06,831
dishonor man,
834
01:02:09,480 --> 01:02:13,473
if God could take away his
freedom,
835
01:02:17,280 --> 01:02:18,269
than
836
01:02:18,640 --> 01:02:20,551
if man, with his freedom,
837
01:02:21,040 --> 01:02:22,598
committed a crime.
838
01:02:24,640 --> 01:02:26,039
And here
839
01:02:27,080 --> 01:02:28,798
is the game of love!
840
01:02:31,200 --> 01:02:33,760
Without freedom
we cannot love.
841
01:02:35,840 --> 01:02:38,673
Because love implies a choice.
842
01:02:39,200 --> 01:02:40,428
The ultimate love,
843
01:02:40,800 --> 01:02:44,839
the parents' love for their
child, and vice versa,
844
01:02:45,200 --> 01:02:46,838
the love of a couple,
845
01:02:47,240 --> 01:02:49,071
between bride and groom,
846
01:02:50,040 --> 01:02:52,315
the love for life,
the love of people
847
01:02:52,680 --> 01:02:54,193
all imply an option:
848
01:02:54,560 --> 01:02:56,596
Either I love, or I don't,
849
01:02:57,000 --> 01:02:58,194
or I hate.
850
01:03:00,080 --> 01:03:02,594
But if I didn't have
that freedom of choice,
851
01:03:03,000 --> 01:03:05,468
I could not love.
852
01:03:16,440 --> 01:03:19,432
Moshe Ha-Elion,
born in Thessaloniki, Greece.
853
01:03:20,640 --> 01:03:24,235
After the German occupation
in April 1943,
854
01:03:24,640 --> 01:03:27,108
he was deported to
Auschwitz-Birkenau.
855
01:03:27,520 --> 01:03:29,829
Sonia Tunik-Geron,
856
01:03:30,240 --> 01:03:32,959
born in Stolpce, formerly
Poland.
857
01:03:33,360 --> 01:03:36,830
Afterthe German invasion In
1941,
858
01:03:37,240 --> 01:03:40,152
she was deported
with her family
to the ghetto...
859
01:03:53,720 --> 01:03:56,996
"Adam, where are you?"
860
01:03:59,600 --> 01:04:01,192
Man, where are you?
861
01:04:02,560 --> 01:04:04,516
What have you come to?
862
01:04:06,000 --> 01:04:07,718
In this place,
863
01:04:09,000 --> 01:04:11,116
the memorial to the Shoah,
864
01:04:12,560 --> 01:04:16,109
we feel God's question
echo once more:
865
01:04:17,560 --> 01:04:20,791
"Adam, where are you?"
866
01:04:22,600 --> 01:04:24,113
In this call
867
01:04:25,600 --> 01:04:29,354
there's all the sorrow of a
father, who has lost a son.
868
01:04:31,320 --> 01:04:34,630
The Father knew the risk of
freedom.
869
01:04:36,400 --> 01:04:40,154
He knew that his children
could get lost.
870
01:04:41,880 --> 01:04:45,111
But perhaps
not even the Father
871
01:04:46,160 --> 01:04:49,709
could have imagined so deep a
fall,
872
01:04:50,920 --> 01:04:52,638
so profound an abyss!
873
01:04:54,360 --> 01:04:57,033
Man, who are you?
874
01:04:58,440 --> 01:05:00,192
Who corrupted you?
875
01:05:01,520 --> 01:05:03,397
Who disfigured you?
876
01:05:04,520 --> 01:05:07,432
Who infected you to assume
877
01:05:08,040 --> 01:05:10,918
that you were the master
over good and evil?
878
01:05:13,400 --> 01:05:16,198
Who convinced you
that you were God?
879
01:05:19,440 --> 01:05:21,431
A great evil has befallen us,
880
01:05:21,920 --> 01:05:25,356
as it never happened under the
sky.
881
01:05:26,600 --> 01:05:29,637
Now, Lord, hear our prayers,
882
01:05:32,320 --> 01:05:34,470
hear our pleas,
883
01:05:36,080 --> 01:05:38,548
save us in your mercy.
884
01:05:40,280 --> 01:05:44,114
Give us the grace
to be ashamed
885
01:05:44,480 --> 01:05:49,474
of what we were able to do as
men!
886
01:05:53,160 --> 01:05:54,957
Never again, Lord!
887
01:05:56,240 --> 01:05:57,719
Never again.
888
01:06:19,440 --> 01:06:22,750
We need to be on guard
against the sad danger
889
01:06:23,440 --> 01:06:26,830
of the 'globalization of
indifference',
890
01:06:27,280 --> 01:06:32,149
which leads us to slowly get
used to
891
01:06:32,560 --> 01:06:34,869
the suffering of others,
892
01:06:35,360 --> 01:06:38,113
as if itwas something normal.
893
01:06:39,800 --> 01:06:40,835
It's tragic
894
01:06:41,200 --> 01:06:43,191
that the rising number of
migrants
895
01:06:43,640 --> 01:06:46,552
are not recognized as refugees
896
01:06:46,960 --> 01:06:49,679
by international conventions.
897
01:06:50,720 --> 01:06:53,439
We cannot remain indifferent
898
01:06:53,800 --> 01:06:55,028
in front of this.
899
01:06:55,440 --> 01:06:57,749
We don't have the right!
900
01:08:37,480 --> 01:08:40,392
Dear Brothers and Sisters,
901
01:08:45,040 --> 01:08:47,156
I have wanted to be with you
today,
902
01:08:51,240 --> 01:08:55,074
and tell you that you are not
alone.
903
01:08:56,800 --> 01:08:58,518
In these months and weeks
904
01:08:58,880 --> 01:09:01,269
you have endured
much suffering
905
01:09:02,040 --> 01:09:04,793
in your search for a better
life.
906
01:09:05,200 --> 01:09:06,189
Many of you
907
01:09:06,560 --> 01:09:09,916
have felt forced to flee
908
01:09:10,320 --> 01:09:13,835
from situations of conflict
and persecution,
909
01:09:14,360 --> 01:09:16,999
above all for the sake of your
children
910
01:09:17,360 --> 01:09:19,635
and your little ones.
911
01:09:21,760 --> 01:09:25,469
You've made big sacrifices
foryour families.
912
01:09:26,080 --> 01:09:29,470
You know the sorrow
of having left behind
913
01:09:30,200 --> 01:09:33,590
all that was dear to you.
914
01:09:35,000 --> 01:09:37,833
And what is perhaps most
difficult:
915
01:09:38,200 --> 01:09:40,156
without knowing
916
01:09:40,560 --> 01:09:43,438
what the future might possibly
917
01:09:43,840 --> 01:09:45,796
bring along.
918
01:09:47,840 --> 01:09:52,595
God created mankind to be one
family.
919
01:09:53,400 --> 01:09:56,995
When any of our brothers
and sisters suffer,
920
01:09:57,360 --> 01:09:59,635
we are all affected.
921
01:10:01,240 --> 01:10:06,075
We have come to call the
attention of the world
922
01:10:06,680 --> 01:10:09,990
to this serious humanitarian
crisis,
923
01:10:10,720 --> 01:10:14,872
and to plead
for its resolution.
924
01:10:16,160 --> 01:10:19,152
We hope that
the world will pay attention
925
01:10:19,560 --> 01:10:23,075
to this situation of tragic
needs,
926
01:10:23,520 --> 01:10:25,556
that is truly desperate,
927
01:10:26,000 --> 01:10:28,355
and that it will respond in a
way
928
01:10:35,520 --> 01:10:36,953
These people
929
01:10:37,320 --> 01:10:41,279
are victims of a global
injustice!
930
01:10:42,200 --> 01:10:44,839
Why do they have to leave
their land?
931
01:10:45,200 --> 01:10:47,111
Forwar, or hunger.
932
01:10:48,160 --> 01:10:50,310
If we take a look at the
statistics...
933
01:10:50,720 --> 01:10:54,110
Around 80%
934
01:10:55,040 --> 01:10:57,110
of the world's riches
935
01:10:57,520 --> 01:11:01,957
are in the hands
of less than 20% of humanity.
936
01:11:03,960 --> 01:11:06,554
There is an inequality
937
01:11:07,640 --> 01:11:09,551
in the economic balance,
938
01:11:11,040 --> 01:11:12,519
and that inequality
939
01:11:13,400 --> 01:11:14,719
marginalizes,
940
01:11:15,440 --> 01:11:18,159
excludes, casts aside!
941
01:11:49,120 --> 01:11:52,396
The process of integration is
difficult.
942
01:11:53,320 --> 01:11:56,278
Obviously we are here facing
943
01:11:56,640 --> 01:11:58,312
the challenge of differences.
944
01:11:59,440 --> 01:12:00,714
And differences
945
01:12:01,120 --> 01:12:03,236
always scare us
946
01:12:04,200 --> 01:12:05,838
because they make us grow.
947
01:12:08,800 --> 01:12:10,199
Uniformity
948
01:12:12,280 --> 01:12:13,793
doesn't make us grow,
949
01:12:14,920 --> 01:12:16,797
so it doesn't scare us.
950
01:12:18,200 --> 01:12:21,033
Differences are creative,
they create tension,
951
01:12:21,440 --> 01:12:24,796
and resolving this tension
moves humanity forward.
952
01:12:27,480 --> 01:12:29,516
l have always said that
953
01:12:30,080 --> 01:12:31,229
building walls
954
01:12:31,720 --> 01:12:33,517
is not a solution.
955
01:12:34,440 --> 01:12:35,998
We've seen,
956
01:12:36,920 --> 01:12:38,638
in the last century,
957
01:12:39,040 --> 01:12:40,632
the fall of one...
958
01:12:43,160 --> 01:12:45,196
No, it resolves nothing!
959
01:12:46,840 --> 01:12:48,398
We must build bridges,
960
01:12:49,080 --> 01:12:52,595
bridges that are made
intelligently,
961
01:12:53,760 --> 01:12:56,354
with dialogue and integration.
962
01:12:57,280 --> 01:12:59,953
Closing the borders
963
01:13:00,320 --> 01:13:01,992
solves nothing!
964
01:13:02,680 --> 01:13:05,194
Because that, in the long run,
965
01:13:06,360 --> 01:13:08,635
harms its own people.
966
01:13:12,240 --> 01:13:13,389
Members of Congress.
967
01:13:14,080 --> 01:13:17,470
l have the high privilege
and distinct honor of
presenting to you:
968
01:13:17,680 --> 01:13:20,035
Pope Francis of the Holy See.
969
01:13:40,560 --> 01:13:42,949
Honorable Members of Congress,
970
01:13:49,680 --> 01:13:53,309
I am most grateful
foryour invitation
971
01:13:54,280 --> 01:13:58,751
to address
this Joint Session of Congress
972
01:14:00,200 --> 01:14:05,069
'in the land of the free
and the home of the brave'.
973
01:14:21,640 --> 01:14:22,709
Ourworld
974
01:14:24,080 --> 01:14:25,832
is facing
975
01:14:27,160 --> 01:14:31,312
a refugee crisis
of a magnitude
976
01:14:32,000 --> 01:14:33,672
not seen
977
01:14:34,040 --> 01:14:36,918
since the Second World War.
978
01:14:37,880 --> 01:14:42,317
This presents us with great
challenges
979
01:14:42,680 --> 01:14:44,875
and many hard decisions.
980
01:14:47,000 --> 01:14:48,911
On this continent, too,
981
01:14:49,520 --> 01:14:51,238
thousands of persons
982
01:14:51,960 --> 01:14:53,871
are led to travel north
983
01:14:54,240 --> 01:14:58,791
in search of a better life
forthemselves,
984
01:14:59,160 --> 01:15:01,390
and for their loved ones.
985
01:15:02,360 --> 01:15:05,875
We must not be taken aback
by their numbers,
986
01:15:06,480 --> 01:15:09,597
but rather view them as
persons,
987
01:15:10,560 --> 01:15:12,596
seeing their faces
988
01:15:13,680 --> 01:15:17,275
and listening
to their stories.
989
01:15:19,240 --> 01:15:23,279
We, the people of this
continent,
990
01:15:24,160 --> 01:15:27,948
are not fearful of foreigners,
991
01:15:29,000 --> 01:15:31,389
because most of us
992
01:15:31,760 --> 01:15:33,671
were once foreigners.
993
01:15:40,360 --> 01:15:42,999
Let us remember
the Golden Rule:
994
01:15:44,440 --> 01:15:47,352
"Do unto others, as you...
995
01:15:49,160 --> 01:15:52,232
would have them do unto you."
996
01:15:53,760 --> 01:15:56,149
If we want security,
997
01:15:57,280 --> 01:15:59,316
let us give security.
998
01:16:00,520 --> 01:16:03,432
lfwe want life,
999
01:16:03,800 --> 01:16:05,552
let us give life.
1000
01:16:06,280 --> 01:16:08,350
lfwe want opportunities,
1001
01:16:09,200 --> 01:16:12,192
let us provide these
opportunities.
1002
01:16:15,720 --> 01:16:19,759
Being at the service
of dialogue and peace
1003
01:16:20,760 --> 01:16:25,151
also means being truly
determined
1004
01:16:25,640 --> 01:16:27,471
to minimize,
1005
01:16:27,880 --> 01:16:30,348
and in the long term,
1006
01:16:31,360 --> 01:16:32,713
to end
1007
01:16:33,600 --> 01:16:38,754
the many armed conflicts
throughout ourworld.
1008
01:16:45,040 --> 01:16:48,396
Here we have to ask ourselves:
1009
01:16:49,640 --> 01:16:50,993
Why...
1010
01:16:51,840 --> 01:16:55,799
are deadly weapons being sold
1011
01:16:56,640 --> 01:17:01,794
to those who plan
to inflict untold suffering
1012
01:17:02,800 --> 01:17:05,758
on individuals and society?
1013
01:17:08,160 --> 01:17:10,833
Sadly, the answer,
1014
01:17:11,840 --> 01:17:14,912
as we all know, is simply for
money.
1015
01:17:15,720 --> 01:17:19,918
Money that is
drenched in blood.
1016
01:17:20,440 --> 01:17:23,113
It is our duty
1017
01:17:23,520 --> 01:17:26,956
to stop the arms trade.
1018
01:17:34,200 --> 01:17:37,909
Pope Francis
has no weapons,
other than words.
1019
01:17:38,960 --> 01:17:41,679
But do words
still count today?
1020
01:17:43,760 --> 01:17:46,149
Some of the hard-boiled
American congressmen
1021
01:17:46,240 --> 01:17:47,639
were moved to tears.
1022
01:17:48,520 --> 01:17:50,238
Maybe because
there is a man who...
1023
01:17:50,320 --> 01:17:51,912
lives what he preaches.
1024
01:17:53,920 --> 01:17:56,275
We're smiling
here in the studio
at the looks of this car,
1025
01:17:56,400 --> 01:18:00,473
we are used to...
the big American dreadnoughts,
1026
01:18:00,640 --> 01:18:05,236
the limousines, the Chevy...
Suburbans and this is a...
a Mr. Bean car
1027
01:18:05,320 --> 01:18:08,676
by comparison and yeah,
it's gonna take him
around town.
1028
01:18:10,280 --> 01:18:14,319
Indeed,
Pope Francis' car
is not a status symbol.
1029
01:18:14,760 --> 01:18:18,435
lt's rathera signal
that we can
all get by with... less.
1030
01:18:19,920 --> 01:18:22,639
His status.,.
is that he says the truth,
1031
01:18:22,920 --> 01:18:25,354
that he cares
for the common good
1032
01:18:25,440 --> 01:18:28,193
and that...
he's into dialogue,
not confrontation.
1033
01:18:28,800 --> 01:18:32,190
He wants to bring about peace,
as a man of God,
1034
01:18:32,280 --> 01:18:35,829
together with other men
and women of God
here at Ground Zero...
1035
01:18:36,600 --> 01:18:39,672
the very symbol
against religious fanaticism.
1036
01:18:58,680 --> 01:19:00,636
800 years ago...
1037
01:19:01,480 --> 01:19:04,233
Saint Francis traveled
to the Holy Land,
1038
01:19:04,640 --> 01:19:08,519
during the Crusades,
the most ravaging war
of his time.
1039
01:19:10,000 --> 01:19:12,878
He put his life on the line,
to initiate... peace
1040
01:19:12,960 --> 01:19:15,713
between Christianity
and Islam.
1041
01:19:18,320 --> 01:19:22,393
Francis first tried
to convince the Christian
fighters and commanders,
1042
01:19:22,480 --> 01:19:23,913
to end the bloodshed.
1043
01:19:24,800 --> 01:19:26,518
And then, at great risk,
1044
01:19:26,960 --> 01:19:29,713
he walked directly
to the highest authority
1045
01:19:29,800 --> 01:19:32,951
of the lslamic world:
The Sultan of Egypt.
1046
01:19:34,440 --> 01:19:37,193
We don't know for sure
whether he just talked to him
1047
01:19:37,280 --> 01:19:39,919
or actually tried
to evangelize him.
1048
01:19:41,080 --> 01:19:45,119
The story goes
that the sultan,
wise as he was,
1049
01:19:45,520 --> 01:19:48,432
was very impressed
by the Saint’s fearlessness,
1050
01:19:48,520 --> 01:19:51,273
his“, poverty
and his moral clarity.
1051
01:19:52,200 --> 01:19:56,671
So he listened to him,
let him go unharmed
and said when they parted:
1052
01:19:58,040 --> 01:19:59,837
"Pray to God for me,
1053
01:20:00,800 --> 01:20:03,109
to reveal to me
the law and the faith...
1054
01:20:03,480 --> 01:20:06,199
that is most pleasing to God. "
1055
01:20:07,800 --> 01:20:10,553
Each man learnt
from the other.
1056
01:20:14,560 --> 01:20:19,190
Here, Pope Francis,
on his journey...
to the Holy Land,
1057
01:20:19,360 --> 01:20:24,229
prays by the waters
of the river Jordan,
where Jesus was baptized.
1058
01:20:35,880 --> 01:20:38,155
Yesterday I had a dialogue
with the Grand Imam
1059
01:20:38,560 --> 01:20:40,471
of Al-Azhar of Egypt,
1060
01:20:41,760 --> 01:20:45,753
a Muslim, the greatest
representative of Sunni Islam.
1061
01:20:48,040 --> 01:20:52,431
And we were able to talk about
God very fraternally,
1062
01:20:56,000 --> 01:20:59,675
because we both understood
each other as brothers.
1063
01:21:02,480 --> 01:21:03,708
But never
1064
01:21:04,120 --> 01:21:05,951
I want to underline this:
1065
01:21:06,320 --> 01:21:10,233
never take a proselytizing
attitude!
1066
01:21:12,560 --> 01:21:13,675
Never.
1067
01:22:04,720 --> 01:22:07,234
There are some that say no,
1068
01:22:07,640 --> 01:22:10,313
that the God of Muslims
1069
01:22:10,680 --> 01:22:13,114
is not the same as ours...
1070
01:22:14,480 --> 01:22:16,436
We are children of Abraham!
1071
01:22:19,360 --> 01:22:20,873
Nobody can deny that.
1072
01:22:23,480 --> 01:22:25,391
And therefore we are brothers,
1073
01:22:25,760 --> 01:22:28,433
if we like it or not.
1074
01:22:29,240 --> 01:22:30,958
We are brothers!
1075
01:22:39,240 --> 01:22:41,196
How are you?
How are you?
1076
01:22:41,280 --> 01:22:42,474
I'm fine.
1077
01:22:42,640 --> 01:22:44,756
I'm glad to see you.
I'm glad to see you too.
1078
01:23:27,880 --> 01:23:31,270
Time flies on, whether...
we want it to, or not,
1079
01:23:31,760 --> 01:23:34,149
and even seems to be
accelerating.
1080
01:23:35,160 --> 01:23:37,913
Our world is in constant...
turmoil.
1081
01:23:38,640 --> 01:23:42,553
Even the truth has become
an endangered species
1082
01:23:43,120 --> 01:23:46,317
when... "alternative facts"
are governing the news
1083
01:23:46,640 --> 01:23:50,474
and cynicism, lies and
corruption are the political
order of the day.
1084
01:23:52,240 --> 01:23:56,074
In 2018,
the papacy of Pope Francis
1085
01:23:56,160 --> 01:23:58,549
is going into its sixth year.
1086
01:23:59,440 --> 01:24:01,908
More than most
of his predecessors
1087
01:24:02,000 --> 01:24:04,594
he has fearlessly moved
the church forward,
1088
01:24:04,680 --> 01:24:07,399
against much resistance.
1089
01:24:08,240 --> 01:24:11,949
The ancient town of Assisi
has now become...
1090
01:24:12,040 --> 01:24:14,838
a spiritual center
for all religions.
1091
01:24:14,920 --> 01:24:18,754
We. here, on the World Day
of Prayer for. .. peace.
1092
01:24:22,680 --> 01:24:26,798
The legacy of Saint Francis
lives on.
1093
01:24:55,000 --> 01:24:57,150
God does not see
with His eyes.
1094
01:24:58,040 --> 01:24:59,758
God sees with His heart.
1095
01:25:00,440 --> 01:25:01,998
And God's love
1096
01:25:02,720 --> 01:25:04,631
is the same
1097
01:25:05,000 --> 01:25:06,831
for each and every person.
1098
01:25:07,920 --> 01:25:10,195
No matter
what your religion is.
1099
01:25:12,120 --> 01:25:13,109
Even for an atheist
1100
01:25:13,480 --> 01:25:15,357
it's the same love.
1101
01:25:17,320 --> 01:25:20,995
When the final day comes,
1102
01:25:22,240 --> 01:25:25,471
and when there's
light enough on Earth
1103
01:25:25,880 --> 01:25:28,474
to see things as they are,
1104
01:25:29,200 --> 01:25:31,998
we will be in for a surprise!
1105
01:25:33,520 --> 01:25:34,953
Do you believe
1106
01:25:35,400 --> 01:25:37,118
that Mahatma Gandhi
1107
01:25:37,520 --> 01:25:39,397
or Martin Luther King
1108
01:25:40,600 --> 01:25:44,229
are less loved by God
1109
01:25:44,680 --> 01:25:46,272
than a priest or a nun?
1110
01:25:49,160 --> 01:25:50,912
God loves
1111
01:25:51,320 --> 01:25:53,595
and sees us all
with his heart.
1112
01:25:55,440 --> 01:25:56,998
And maybe
1113
01:26:01,440 --> 01:26:05,353
that's the only common bond
all men have,
1114
01:26:06,320 --> 01:26:08,356
the bond of God's love.
1115
01:26:10,880 --> 01:26:12,518
Other than that we are free.
1116
01:26:14,960 --> 01:26:16,951
Even free not to love him.
1117
01:26:30,920 --> 01:26:33,354
None of us is an island,
1118
01:26:34,640 --> 01:26:38,519
autonomous and independent
from others.
1119
01:26:39,600 --> 01:26:43,275
We can only build the future
together,
1120
01:26:43,680 --> 01:26:45,830
without excluding anyone.
1121
01:26:48,400 --> 01:26:50,152
How wonderful would it be
1122
01:26:51,080 --> 01:26:55,870
if the growth of scientific
and technological innovation
1123
01:26:56,240 --> 01:26:58,151
would come along
1124
01:26:58,800 --> 01:27:02,554
with more equality and social
inclusion.
1125
01:27:02,760 --> 01:27:05,877
it is our diversity that
makes us stronger...
1126
01:27:06,240 --> 01:27:09,994
and by working together,
we can do things much greater
1127
01:27:10,080 --> 01:27:11,593
than we can do as individuals.
1128
01:27:13,080 --> 01:27:14,308
How wonderful would it be,
1129
01:27:14,680 --> 01:27:18,116
while we discover faraway
planets,
1130
01:27:18,760 --> 01:27:22,833
to rediscover the needs
of the brothers and sisters,
1131
01:27:23,240 --> 01:27:25,310
who are orbiting around us.
1132
01:27:27,880 --> 01:27:30,838
Only by an education in
fraternity
1133
01:27:31,720 --> 01:27:34,314
towards a real solidarity
1134
01:27:35,040 --> 01:27:38,749
can we overcome
the 'culture of waste',
1135
01:27:39,680 --> 01:27:43,070
that doesn't just concern
food and goods,
1136
01:27:44,640 --> 01:27:47,438
but first of all people.
1137
01:27:49,880 --> 01:27:52,440
Please allow me to say it
clearly:
1138
01:27:52,800 --> 01:27:55,155
the more powerful you are,
1139
01:27:55,640 --> 01:27:59,713
the more your actions
will have an impact on people,
1140
01:28:00,520 --> 01:28:03,637
the more you are called to be
humble!
1141
01:28:05,800 --> 01:28:09,509
Otherwise, your power
will ruin you,
1142
01:28:10,280 --> 01:28:13,078
and you will ruin the others.
1143
01:28:28,520 --> 01:28:30,476
Tenderness is not weakness,
1144
01:28:30,840 --> 01:28:31,989
it is strength!
1145
01:28:44,200 --> 01:28:48,273
Tenderness makes us
use our eyes to see the other,
1146
01:28:48,840 --> 01:28:51,434
our ears to hear the other,
1147
01:28:51,920 --> 01:28:54,559
to listen to the cries of the
children,
1148
01:28:54,960 --> 01:28:55,949
the poor,
1149
01:28:56,320 --> 01:28:57,992
those who are afraid of the
future.
1150
01:28:58,480 --> 01:29:01,392
To also listen
to the silent cry
1151
01:29:01,800 --> 01:29:06,590
ofour common home,
our sick and polluted Earth.
1152
01:29:10,040 --> 01:29:12,031
We have so much to do,
1153
01:29:12,440 --> 01:29:14,032
and we must do it together.
1154
01:29:17,080 --> 01:29:21,392
In the darkness
of the conflicts
we're living through,
1155
01:29:21,920 --> 01:29:23,353
each of us
1156
01:29:23,720 --> 01:29:27,269
can become a bright candle to
remind us
1157
01:29:27,640 --> 01:29:30,791
that light will overcome
darkness,
1158
01:29:31,440 --> 01:29:33,158
and never
the otherway around.
1159
01:29:41,240 --> 01:29:42,878
To us Christians
1160
01:29:43,480 --> 01:29:45,675
the future has a name,
1161
01:29:47,400 --> 01:29:49,550
and its name is Hope.
1162
01:29:50,720 --> 01:29:55,874
It's the virtue of a heart
that doesn't look itself up,
1163
01:29:56,280 --> 01:29:58,350
that doesn't
dwell on the past,
1164
01:29:58,720 --> 01:30:01,518
and not only survives the
present,
1165
01:30:01,880 --> 01:30:04,633
but is able to see a tomorrow.
1166
01:30:19,760 --> 01:30:23,594
And one of the things
that helps others
in their lives
1167
01:30:23,960 --> 01:30:28,238
is the expression of beauty.
1168
01:30:30,480 --> 01:30:31,629
An artist
1169
01:30:32,840 --> 01:30:34,592
is an apostle of beauty,
1170
01:30:34,960 --> 01:30:36,757
who helps others live.
1171
01:30:38,560 --> 01:30:42,075
Let's think of all the artists
who achieved that.
1172
01:30:42,600 --> 01:30:44,397
But also all of us!
1173
01:30:45,800 --> 01:30:48,473
And if you ask me:
"Give me an example
1174
01:30:49,320 --> 01:30:50,594
of beauty,
1175
01:30:51,760 --> 01:30:53,591
simple everyday beauty,
1176
01:30:54,600 --> 01:30:59,037
with which we can help others
feel better
1177
01:30:59,400 --> 01:31:00,799
and be happier,"
1178
01:31:01,200 --> 01:31:02,713
two things come to my mind.
1179
01:31:03,920 --> 01:31:05,717
Asmile,
1180
01:31:06,480 --> 01:31:08,311
and a sense of humor.
1181
01:31:11,640 --> 01:31:15,110
The ability to smile!
1182
01:31:16,240 --> 01:31:18,834
A smile is the flower of the
heart,
1183
01:31:21,200 --> 01:31:22,997
especially when it is given
freely,
1184
01:31:23,640 --> 01:31:26,518
not for manipulative
and seductive aims.
1185
01:31:26,880 --> 01:31:28,313
Justasmile.
1186
01:31:28,680 --> 01:31:31,558
'A fresh smile'
as it's called in literature.
1187
01:31:33,000 --> 01:31:34,638
And the sense of humor.
1188
01:31:35,440 --> 01:31:37,431
Here | make a personal
confession.
1189
01:31:38,520 --> 01:31:39,953
Every day,
1190
01:31:40,960 --> 01:31:43,235
after my morning prayer,
1191
01:31:44,360 --> 01:31:48,353
l recite Saint Thomas More.
1192
01:31:49,960 --> 01:31:52,076
His "Prayer for good Humor"
1193
01:31:53,080 --> 01:31:54,433
'Sense of humor'
1194
01:31:56,800 --> 01:31:59,314
It starts in a way
that makes you laugh.
1195
01:32:01,560 --> 01:32:04,836
"Give me, O Lord, a good
digestion,
1196
01:32:06,040 --> 01:32:08,474
but also something to digest."
1197
01:32:09,840 --> 01:32:10,989
That's it.
