Speaking to members of the Vatican's pro-life think-tank today (June 25, 2018), Pope Francis condemned the "spiritual virus" of thinking only of oneself and called for the promotion of an integral ecology that considers life in a globalized world without forgetting our differences, according to the Crux website.
"By excluding the other from our horizon, life holds onto itself and becomes a consumer good," the pope said.
He added, "It spreads a spiritual virus that is very contagious, condemning us to be man-mirrors and woman-mirrors that only see themselves and nothing else."
"Christian wisdom must reopen, with passion and audacity, the reflection on the destination of human beings toward the life of God, who promised to open the love of life, beyond death, the infinite horizon of loving beings of light, with no more tears," Francis concluded.
