OVERCOME INDIFFERENCE AND WIN PEACE
\n1. \u00a0 \u00a0God is not indifferent! \u00a0God cares about mankind! \u00a0God does not abandon us! \u00a0At the beginning of the New Year, I would like to share not only this profound conviction but also my cordial good wishes for prosperity, peace and the fulfilment of the hopes of every man and every woman, every family, people and nation throughout the world, including all Heads of State and Government and all religious leaders. \u00a0We continue to trust that 2016 will see us all firmly and confidently engaged, on different levels, in the pursuit of justice and peace. \u00a0Peace is both God\u00e2??s gift and a human achievement. \u00a0As a gift of God, it is entrusted to all men and women, who are called to attain it.<\/p>\n
\u00a0 \u00a0 Maintaining our reasons for hope
\n2. \u00a0 \u00a0Sadly, war and terrorism, accompanied by kidnapping, ethnic or religious persecution and the misuse of power, marked the past year from start to finish. \u00a0In many parts of the world, these have became so common as to constitute a real 'third world war fought piecemeal\u00e2?\u009d. \u00a0Yet some events of the year now ending inspire me, in looking ahead to the new year, to encourage everyone not to lose hope in our human ability to conquer evil and to combat resignation and indifference. \u00a0They demonstrate our capacity to show solidarity and to rise above self-interest, apathy and indifference in the face of critical situations.<\/p>\n
\u00a0 \u00a0 Here I would mention the efforts to bring world leaders together at COP21 in the search for new ways to confront climate change and to protect the earth, our common home. \u00a0We can also think of two earlier global events: the Addis Ababa Summit for funding sustainable development worldwide and the adoption of the United Nations 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, aimed at ensuring a more dignified standard of living for all the world\u00e2??s peoples, especially the poor, by that year.<\/p>\n
\u00a0 \u00a0 For the Church, 2015 was a special year, since it marked the fiftieth anniversary of two documents of the Second Vatican Council which eloquently expressed her sense of solidarity with the world. \u00a0Pope John XXIII, at the beginning of the Council, wanted to open wide the windows of the Church and to improve her communication with the world. \u00a0The two documents, Nostra Aetate and Gaudium et Spes, are emblematic of the new relationship of dialogue, solidarity and accompaniment which the Church sought to awaken within the human family. \u00a0In the Declaration Nostra Aetate, the Church expressed her openness to dialogue with non-Christian religions. \u00a0In the Pastoral Constitution Gaudium et Spes, based on a recognition that 'the joys and hopes, the grief and anguish of the people of our time, especially of those who are poor or afflicted, are the joys and hopes, the grief and anguish of the followers of Christ as well\u00e2?\u009d, \u00a0the Church proposed to enter into dialogue with the entire human family about the problems of our world, as a sign of solidarity, respect and affection.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u00a0 \u00a0 Along these same lines, with the present Jubilee of Mercy I want to invite the Church to pray and work so that every Christian will have a humble and compassionate heart, one capable of proclaiming and witnessing to mercy. \u00a0It is my hope that all of us will learn to 'forgive and give\u00e2?\u009d, to become more open 'to those living on the outermost fringes of society - fringes which modern society itself creates\u00e2?\u009d, and to refuse to fall into 'a humiliating indifference or a monotonous routine which prevents us from discovering what is new! \u00a0Let us ward off destructive cynicism!\u00e2?\u009d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u00a0 \u00a0 There are many good reasons to believe in mankind\u00e2??s capacity to act together in solidarity and, on the basis of our interconnection and interdependence, to demonstrate concern for the more vulnerable of our brothers and sisters and for the protection of the common good. \u00a0This attitude of mutual responsibility is rooted in our fundamental vocation to fraternity and a life in common. \u00a0Personal dignity and interpersonal relationships are what constitute us as human beings whom God willed to create in his own image and likeness. \u00a0As creatures endowed with inalienable dignity, we are related to all our brothers and sisters, for whom we are responsible and with whom we act in solidarity. \u00a0Lacking this relationship, we would be less human. \u00a0We see, then, how indifference represents a menace to the human family. \u00a0As we approach a new year, I would ask everyone to take stock of this reality, in order to overcome indifference and to win peace.<\/p>\n
\u00a0 \u00a0 Kinds of indifference
\n3. \u00a0 \u00a0Clearly, indifference is not something new; every period of history has known people who close their hearts to the needs of others, who close their eyes to what is happening around them, who turn aside to avoid encountering other people's problems. \u00a0But in our day, indifference has ceased to be a purely personal matter and has taken on broader dimensions, producing a certain 'globalization of indifference\u00e2?\u009d.<\/p>\n
\u00a0 \u00a0 The first kind of indifference in human society is indifference to God, which then leads to indifference to one\u00e2??s neighbour and to the environment. \u00a0This is one of the grave consequences of a false humanism and practical materialism allied to relativism and nihilism. \u00a0We have come to to think that we are the source and creator of ourselves, our lives and society. \u00a0We feel self-sufficient, prepared not only to find a substitute for God but to do completely without him. \u00a0As a consequence, we feel that we owe nothing to anyone but ourselves, and we claim only rights. \u00a0 Against this erroneous understanding of the person, Pope Benedict XVI observed that neither man himself nor human development can, on their own, answer the question of our ultimate meaning. \u00a0 Paul VI likewise stated that 'there is no true humanism but that which is open to the Absolute, and is conscious of a vocation which gives human life its authentic significance\u00e2?\u009d.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u00a0 \u00a0 Indifference to our neighbour shows itself in different ways. \u00a0Some people are well-informed; they listen to the radio, read the newspapers or watch television, but they do so mechanically and without engagement. \u00a0They are vaguely aware of the tragedies afflicting humanity, but they have no sense of involvement or compassion. \u00a0Theirs is the attitude of those who know, but keep their gaze, their thoughts and their actions focused on themselves. \u00a0Sadly, it must be said that today\u00e2??s information explosion does not of itself lead to an increased concern for other people\u00e2??s problems, which demands openness and a sense of solidarity. \u00a0 Indeed, the information glut can numb people\u00e2??s sensibilities and to some degree downplay the gravity of the problems. \u00a0There are those who 'simply content themselves with blaming the poor and the poor countries themselves for their troubles; indulging in unwarranted generalizations, they claim that the solution is an \u00e2??education\u00e2?? that would tranquilize them, making them tame and harmless. All this becomes even more exasperating for the marginalized in the light of the widespread and deeply rooted corruption found in many countries \u00e2?? in their governments, businesses and institutions \u00e2?? whatever the political ideology of their leaders.\u00e2?\u009d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u00a0 \u00a0 In other cases, indifference shows itself in lack of concern for what is happening around us, especially if it does not touch us directly. \u00a0Some people prefer not to ask questions or seek answers; they lead lives of comfort, deaf to the cry of those who suffer. \u00a0Almost imperceptibly, we grow incapable of feeling compassion for others and for their problems; we have no interest in caring for them, as if their troubles were their own responsibility, and none of our business. \u00a0 'When we are healthy and comfortable, we forget about others (something God the Father never does): we are unconcerned with their problems, their sufferings and the injustices they endure\u00e2?\u00a6 \u00a0Our heart grows cold. \u00a0As long as I am relatively healthy and comfortable, I don\u00e2??t think about those less well off.\u00e2?\u009d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u00a0 \u00a0 Because we dwell in a common home, we cannot help but ask ourselves about the state of its health, as I sought to do in Laudato Si\u00e2??. \u00a0Water and air pollution, the indiscriminate exploitation of forests and the destruction of the natural environment are often the result of man\u00e2??s indifference to man, since everything is interrelated. \u00a0Then too, there is the way we treat animals, which has an effect on the way we treat other people , and the cases where people freely do elsewhere what they would never dare do at home.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u00a0 \u00a0 In these and in other situations, indifference leads to self-absorption and a lack of commitment. \u00a0It thus contributes to the absence of peace with God, with our neighbour and with the environment.<\/p>\n
\u00a0 \u00a0 Peace threatened by globalized indifference
\n4. \u00a0 \u00a0Indifference towards God transcends the purely private sphere of the individual and affects the public and social sphere. \u00a0As Benedict XVI pointed out, 'the glorification of God and human peace on earth are closely linked\u00e2?\u009d. \u00a0 Indeed, 'without openness to the transcendent, human beings easily become prey to relativism and find it difficult to act justly and to work for peace. \u00a0 Disregard and the denial of God, which lead man to acknowledge no norm above himself and himself alone, have produced untold cruelty and violence.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u00a0 \u00a0 On both the individual and communitarian levels, indifference to one\u00e2??s neighbour, born of indifference to God, finds expression in disinterest and a lack of engagement, which only help to prolong situations of injustice and grave social imbalance. \u00a0These in turn can lead to conflicts or, in any event, generate a climate of dissatisfaction which risks exploding sooner or later into acts of violence and insecurity.<\/p>\n
\u00a0 \u00a0 Indifference and lack of commitment constitute a grave dereliction of the duty whereby each of us must work in accordance with our abilities and our role in society for the promotion of the common good, and in particular for peace, which is one of mankind\u00e2??s most precious goods.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u00a0 \u00a0 On the institutional level, indifference to others and to their dignity, their fundamental rights and their freedom, when it is part of a culture shaped by the pursuit of profit and hedonism, can foster and even justify actions and policies which ultimately represent threats to peace. \u00a0Indifference can even lead to justifying deplorable economic policies which breed injustice, division and violence for the sake of ensuring the wellbeing of individuals or nations. \u00a0Not infrequently, economic and political projects aim at securing or maintaining power and wealth, even at the cost of trampling on the basic rights and needs of others. \u00a0When people witness the denial of their elementary rights, such as the right to food, water, health care or employment, they are tempted to obtain them by force.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u00a0 \u00a0 Moreover, indifference to the natural environment, by countenancing deforestation, pollution and natural catastrophes which uproot entire communities from their ecosystem and create profound insecurity, ends up creating new forms of poverty and new situations of injustice, often with dire consequences for security and peace. \u00a0How many wars have been fought, and how many will continue to be fought, over a shortage of goods or out of an insatiable thirst for natural resources?\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u00a0 \u00a0 From indifference to mercy: the conversion of hearts
\n5. \u00a0 \u00a0One year ago, in my Message for the 2015 World Day of Peace, with the motto 'No Longer Slaves, but Brothers and Sisters\u00e2?\u009d, I evoked the first biblical icon of human brotherhood, that of Cain and Abel (cf. Gen 4:1-16). \u00a0I meant to draw attract attention to how from the very beginning this original brotherhood was betrayed. \u00a0Cain and Abel were brothers. \u00a0Both came forth from the same womb, they were equal in dignity and created in the image and likeness of God; but their relationship as brothers was destroyed. \u00a0'It was not only that Cain could not stand Abel\u00cd\u00be he killed him out of envy.\u00e2?\u009d \u00a0 Fratricide was the form of betrayal, and Cain\u00e2??s refusal to acknowledge Abel as his brother became the first rupture in the family relations of fraternity, solidarity and mutual respect.<\/p>\n
\u00a0 \u00a0 God then intervened to remind man of his responsibility towards his fellows, as he had also done when Adam and Eve, our first parents, ruptured their relationship with him, their Creator. \u00a0'Then the Lord said to Cain: 'Where is Abel your brother?\u00e2?\u009d \u00a0He said, 'I do not know; am I my brother\u00e2??s keeper?\u00e2?\u009d \u00a0But the Lord replied: 'What you have you done? The voice of your brother\u00e2??s blood is crying to me from the ground\u00e2?\u009d (Gen 4:9-10).<\/p>\n
\u00a0 \u00a0 Cain said he did not know what had happened to his brother, that he was not his brother\u00e2??s keeper. \u00a0He did not feel responsible for his life, for his fate. \u00a0He did not feel involved. \u00a0He was indifferent to his brother, despite their common origin. \u00a0How sad! \u00a0What a sorry tale of brothers, of families, of human beings! \u00a0This was the first display of indifference between brothers. \u00a0God, however, is not indifferent. \u00a0Abel\u00e2??s blood had immense value in his eyes, and he asked Cain to give an account of it. \u00a0At the origin of the human race, God shows himself to be involved in man\u00e2??s destiny. \u00a0Later, when the children of Israel were slaves in Egypt, God once more intervened to tell Moses: 'I have seen the affliction of my people who are in Egypt, and have heard their cry because of their taskmasters; I know their sufferings, and I have come down to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians, and to bring them up out of that land to a good and broad land, a land flowing with milk and honey\u00e2?\u009d (Ex 3:7-8). \u00a0We should note the verbs which describe God\u00e2??s intervention: he sees, hears, knows, comes down and delivers. \u00a0God does not remain indifferent. \u00a0He is attentive and he acts.<\/p>\n
\u00a0 \u00a0 In the same way, in Jesus his Son, God has come down among us. \u00a0He took flesh and showed his solidarity with humanity in all things but sin. \u00a0Jesus identified with us: he became 'the first-born among many brethren\u00e2?\u009d (Rom 8:29). \u00a0He was not content merely to teach the crowds, but he was concerned for their welfare, especially when he saw them hungry (cf. Mk 6:34-44) or without work (cf. Mt 20:3). \u00a0He was concerned not only for men and women, but also for the fish of the sea, the birds of the air, plants and trees, all things great and small. \u00a0He saw and embraced all of creation. \u00a0But he did more than just see; he touched people\u00e2??s lives, he spoke to them, helped them and showed kindness to those in need. \u00a0Not only this, but he felt strong emotions and he wept (cf. Jn 11:33-44). \u00a0And he worked to put an end to suffering, sorrow, misery and death.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u00a0 \u00a0 Jesus taught us to be merciful like our heavenly Father (cf. Lk 6:36). \u00a0In the parable of the Good Samaritan (cf. Lk 10:29-37), he condemned those who fail to help others in need, those who 'pass by on the other side\u00e2?\u009d (cf. Lk 10:31-32). \u00a0By this example, he taught his listeners, and his disciples in particular, to stop and to help alleviate the sufferings of this world and the pain of our brothers and sisters, using whatever means are at hand, beginning with our own time, however busy we may be. \u00a0Indifference often seeks excuses: observing ritual prescriptions, looking to all the things needing to be done, hiding behind hostilities and prejudices which keep us apart.<\/p>\n
\u00a0 \u00a0 Mercy is the heart of God. \u00a0It must also be the heart of the members of the one great family of his children: a heart which beats all the more strongly wherever human dignity \u00e2?? as a reflection of the face of God in his creatures \u00e2?? is in play. \u00a0Jesus tells us that love for others \u00e2?? foreigners, the sick, prisoners, the homeless, even our enemies \u00e2?? is the yardstick by which God will judge our actions. \u00a0Our eternal destiny depends on this. \u00a0It is not surprising that the Apostle Paul tells the Christians of Rome to rejoice with those who rejoice and to weep with those who weep (cf. Rom 12:15), or that he encourages the Corinthians to take up collections as a sign of solidarity with the suffering members of the Church (cf. 1 Cor 16:2-3). \u00a0And Saint John writes: 'If any one has the world\u00e2??s goods and sees his brother or sister in need, yet refuses help, how does God\u00e2??s love abide in him? (1 Jn 3:17; cf. Jas 2:15-16).\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u00a0 \u00a0 This then is why 'it is absolutely essential for the Church and for the credibility of her message that she herself live and testify to mercy. \u00a0Her language and her gestures must transmit mercy, so as to touch the hearts of all people and inspire them once more to find the road that leads to the Father. \u00a0The Church\u00e2??s first truth is the love of Christ. \u00a0The Church makes herself a servant of this love and mediates it to all people: a love that forgives and expresses itself in the gift of oneself. \u00a0Consequently, wherever the Church is present, the mercy of the Father must be evident. In our parishes, communities, associations and movements, in a word, wherever there are Christians, everyone should find an oasis of mercy.\u00e2?\u009d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u00a0 \u00a0 We too, then, are called to make compassion, love, mercy and solidarity a true way of life, a rule of conduct in our relationships with one another. \u00a0 This requires the conversion of our hearts: the grace of God has to turn our hearts of stone into hearts of flesh (cf. Ezek 36:26), open to others in authentic solidarity. \u00a0For solidarity is much more than a 'feeling of vague compassion or shallow distress at the misfortunes of so many people, both near and far\u00e2?\u009d. \u00a0 Solidarity is 'a firm and persevering determination to commit oneself to the common good; that is to say to the good of all and of each individual, because we are all really responsible for all\u00e2?\u009d, \u00a0because compassion flows from fraternity.<\/p>\n
\u00a0 \u00a0 Understood in this way, solidarity represents the moral and social attitude which best corresponds to an awareness of the scourges of our own day, and to the growing interdependence, especially in a globalized world, between the lives of given individuals and communities and those of other men and women in the rest of the world.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u00a0 \u00a0 Building a culture of solidarity and mercy to overcome indifference
\n6. \u00a0 \u00a0Solidarity, as a moral virtue and social attitude born of personal conversion, calls for commitment on the part of those responsible for education and formation.<\/p>\n
\u00a0 \u00a0 I think first of families, which are called to a primary and vital mission of education. \u00a0Families are the first place where the values of love and fraternity, togetherness and sharing, concern and care for others are lived out and handed on. \u00a0They are also the privileged milieu for transmitting the faith, beginning with those first simple gestures of devotion which mothers teach their children.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u00a0 \u00a0 Teachers, who have the challenging task of training children and youth in schools or other settings, should be conscious that their responsibility extends also to the moral, spiritual and social aspects of life. \u00a0The values of freedom, mutual respect and solidarity can be handed on from a tender age. \u00a0Speaking to educators, Pope Benedict XVI noted that: 'Every educational setting can be a place of openness to the transcendent and to others\u00cd\u00be a place of dialogue, cohesiveness and attentive listening, where young people feel appreciated for their personal abilities and inner riches, and can learn to esteem their brothers and sisters. May young people be taught to savour the joy which comes from the daily exercise of charity and compassion towards others and from taking an active part in the building of a more humane and fraternal society\u00e2?\u009d.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u00a0 \u00a0 Communicators also have a responsibility for education and formation, especially nowadays, when the means of information and communication are so widespread. \u00a0Their duty is first and foremost to serve the truth, and not particular interests. \u00a0For the media 'not only inform but also form the minds of their audiences, and so they can make a significant contribution to the education of young people. \u00a0It is important never to forget that the connection between education and communication is extremely close: education takes place through communication, which influences, for better or worse, the formation of the person.\u00e2?\u009d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u00a0 \u00a0 Communicators should also be mindful that the way in which information is obtained and made public should always be legally and morally admissible.<\/p>\n
\u00a0 \u00a0 Peace: the fruit of a culture of solidarity, mercy and compassion
\n7. \u00a0 \u00a0While conscious of the threat posed by a globalization of indifference, we should also recognize that, in the scenario I have just described, there are also many positive initiatives which testify to the compassion, mercy and solidarity of which we are capable.<\/p>\n
\u00a0 \u00a0 Here I would offer some examples of praiseworthy commitment, which demonstrate how all of us can overcome indifference in choosing not to close our eyes to our neighbour. \u00a0These represent good practices on the way to a more humane society.<\/p>\n
\u00a0 \u00a0 There are many non-governmental and charitable organizations, both within and outside the Church, whose members, amidst epidemics, disasters and armed conflicts, brave difficulties and dangers in caring for the injured and sick, and in burying the dead. \u00a0I would also mention those individuals and associations which assist migrants who cross deserts and seas in search of a better life. \u00a0These efforts are spiritual and corporal works of mercy on which we will be judged at the end of our lives.<\/p>\n
\u00a0 \u00a0 I think also of the journalists and photographers who shape public opinion on difficult situations which trouble our consciences, and all those devoted to the defence of human rights, especially the rights of ethnic and religious minorities, indigenous peoples, women and children, and the most vulnerable of our brothers and sisters. \u00a0Among them are also many priests and missionaries who, as good pastors, remain at the side of their flock and support them, heedless of danger and hardship, especially during armed conflicts.<\/p>\n
\u00a0 \u00a0 How many families, amid occupational and social difficulties, make great sacrifices to provide their children with a 'counter-cultural\u00e2?\u009d education in the values of solidarity, compassion and fraternity! \u00a0How many families open their hearts and homes to those in need, such as refugees and migrants! \u00a0I wish to thank in a particular way all those individuals, families, parishes, religious communities, monasteries and shrines who readily responded to my appeal to welcome a refugee family.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u00a0Finally, I would mention those young people who join in undertaking works of solidarity, and all those who generously help their neighbours in need in their cities and countries and elsewhere in the world. \u00a0I thank and encourage everyone engaged in such efforts, which often pass unobserved. \u00a0Their hunger and thirst for justice will be satisfied, their mercy will lead them to find mercy and, as peacemakers, they will be called children of God (cf. Mt 5:6-9).\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u00a0 \u00a0 Peace in the sign of the Jubilee of Mercy
\n8. \u00a0 \u00a0In the spirit of the Jubilee of Mercy, all of us are called to realize how indifference can manifest itself in our lives and to work concretely to improve the world around us, beginning with our families, neighbours and places of employment.
\n\u00a0 \u00a0 Civil society is likewise called to make specific and courageous gestures of concern for their most vulnerable members, such as prisoners, migrants, the unemployed and the infirm.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u00a0 \u00a0 With regard to prisoners, it would appear that in many cases practical measures are urgently needed to improve their living conditions, with particular concern for those detained while awaiting trial. \u00a0 It must be kept in mind that penal sanctions have the aim of rehabilitation, while national laws should consider the possibility of other establishing penalties than incarceration. \u00a0In this context, I would like once more to appeal to governmental authorities to abolish the death penalty where it is still in force, and to consider the possibility of an amnesty.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u00a0 \u00a0 With regard to migrants, I would ask that legislation on migration be reviewed, so, while respecting reciprocal rights and responsibilities, it can reflect a readiness to welcome migrants and to facilitate their integration. \u00a0Special concern should be paid to the conditions for legal residency, since having to live clandestinely can lead to criminal behaviour.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u00a0 \u00a0 In this Jubilee Year, I would also appeal to national leaders for concrete gestures in favour of our brothers and sisters who suffer from the lack of labour, land and lodging. \u00a0I am thinking of the creation of dignified jobs to combat the social plague of unemployment, which affects many families and young people, with grave effects for society as a whole. \u00a0Unemployment takes a heavy toll on people\u00e2??s sense of dignity and hope, and can only be partially compensated for by welfare benefits, however necessary these may be, provided to the unemployed and their families. \u00a0Special attention needs to be given to women \u00e2?? who unfortunately still encounter discrimination in the workplace \u00e2?? and to some categories of workers whose conditions are precarious or dangerous, and whose pay is not commensurate to the importance of their social mission.<\/p>\n
\u00a0 \u00a0 Finally, I express my hope that effective steps will be taken to improve the living conditions of the sick by ensuring that all have access to medical treatment and pharmaceuticals essential for life, as well as the possibility of home care.\u00a0
\n\u00a0 \u00a0 Looking beyond their own borders, national leaders are also called to renew their relations with other peoples and to enable their real participation and inclusion in the life of the international community, in order to ensure fraternity within the family of nations as well.<\/p>\n
\u00a0 \u00a0 With this in mind, I would like to make a threefold appeal to the leaders of nations: to refrain from drawing other peoples into conflicts or wars which destroy not only their material, cultural and social legacy, but also \u00e2?? and in the long term \u00e2?? their moral and spiritual integrity; to forgive or manage in a sustainable way the international debt of the poorer nations; and to adopt policies of cooperation which, instead of bowing before the dictatorship of certain ideologies, will respect the values of local populations and, in any case, not prove detrimental to the fundamental and inalienable right to life of the unborn.<\/p>\n
\u00a0 \u00a0 I entrust these reflections, together with my best wishes for the New Year, to the intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary, our Mother, who cares for the needs of our human family, that she may obtain from her Son Jesus, the Prince of Peace, the granting of our prayers and the blessing of our daily efforts for a fraternal and united world.<\/p>\n
