Pope Francis Warns The Global Economy Is Near Collapse
Since Pope Francis has warned “The global economic system is near collapse,” it is almost certain that we will see great confusion. I think that those who have prepared for it might feel that “The time has finally come”, but many people would be taken by surprise and get confused because they do not knowing what is going to happen, as shown in this article.
Although I don’t
know exactly when such day will come, please never fail to
stockpile food.

(Summary)
In an interview with the Huffington Post on
June 13, Pope Francis warned that the
global economy was near collapse.
The pontiff
said: “We can no longer sustain an
economic system that to survive has to idolize money and make
war. We are excluding an entire generation to sustain a
system that is not good.”
He was concerned about youth unemployment and
denounced the influence of
war and the military on the
global economy.
“We discard a whole
generation to maintain an economic system that no longer endures
(an economic system of the big power to maintain economy by
making war). Since
we cannot wage the Third World War, we make regional
wars. We make and
sell arms to maintain our economy. As a result, the balance
sheets of the idolatrous economies – the big world economies that sacrifice man
at the feet of the idol of money
– are obviously cleaned up,”
the Pope said.
According to the Huffington Post, Pope Francis
is gaining a reputation for pointed comments on the global
economy. The Pope
commemorated Thursday’s kick-off game of the World Cup – a global
tournament that has so far cost host nation Brazil at least $15
billion and sparked violent protest by the country’s
disenfranchised poor – with this message to his 4.14 million
Twitter followers.
