Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon and the heads of major U.N.agencies who are meeting in Rome this week.Latin America's first pope has frequently lashed out at the injustices of capitalism and the global economic systemthat excludes so much of humanity.On Friday, Francis called for the United Nations to promote a "worldwide ethical mobilization" of solidarity withthe poor in a new spirit of generosity.He said a more equal form of economic progress can be had through "the legitimate redistribution of economic benefitsby the state, as well as indispensable cooperation between the private sector and civil society."Francis had a similar message to the World Economic Forum in January and in h is apostolic exhortation "The Joy of the Gospel."That document, which denounced trickle-down economic theories as unproven and naive, provoked criticism in the U.S. that he was Marxist.Francis has denied he's Marxist, and spent years in Argentina battling Marxist excesses of liberation theology. But he has saidfrom the outset that he wants a church that "is poor and for the poor" and ministers to the most marginal of society.On Friday, he urged the U.N. to promote development goals that attack the root causes of poverty and hunger, protect the environmentand ensure "dignified" labor for all."Specifically, this involves challenging all forms of injustices and resisting the economy of exclusion, the throwaway culture and theculture of death which nowadays sadly risk becoming passively accepted," he said.____________________________________________________________ Fast, Secure, NetZero 4G Mobile Broadband.
