TWO FACES OF YOUTH
CASTELGANDOLFO (NC). — Pope Paul has decried an "epidemic" of armed violence which, he says, is spreading among young people. At the same time, he praised what he called growing moral concern among many youths. Speaking to pilgrims before reciting the Sunday Angelus, Pope Paul condemned "the plague of armed criminality which, along with degrading vices, is spreading like an epidemic among younger generations who are without scruples or ideals." "Certain heart-rending news items keep recurring in the Press," the Pope said. But, he added, "the peaceful response of goodness is not missing either." The Pontiff, who was 79 on Sunday, also condemned guerilla wars now being waged in some countries, and the international threat of war. But he praised the forces for good, s including those working to help victims of the latest series of earthquakes in the north-eastern Friuli region of Italy. "Today there are many examples of pure and aware young people who, without any bold publicity, offer silent, noble and immensely courageous help to their peers, shaken by self-indulgent and permissive hedonism," declared Pope Paul.
"The awareness of what is good and the energy to accomplish it are not only not missing, but are reawakening and reaffirming themselves in the encounter with Christ. "Let us continue to hope and to work with Him."
