(ANSA) - ROME, JUL 3 - Italian Bishops Conference (CEI)
President Cardinal matteo Zuppi on Wednesday warned against the
dangers of populism saying it could deprive people of democracy.
"The Encyclical Brothers All offers us a concrete, possible,
attractive, shared horizon. One people.
"Therefore, we look with concern at the danger of populisms
that, if we have no memory of the past, can deprive us of
democracy or weaken it!", said Zuppi during the opening ceremony
of the Social Week of Italian Catholics, in Trieste.
"Participation, the heart of our Constitution, allows and
requires the human flourishing of individuals and society,
increases the sense of belonging, educates to have a heart that
beats with others, even among differences," he said. (ANSA).
