<\/strong>What you write can help your readers better understand the complex society we live in\u2014assessing both its potential and its weaknesses\u2014in the search for the \"signs of the times\" to which the Second Vatican Council called our attention.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/strong>This means standing against the indifference of those who remain unmoved by others and their rightful need for a future. It also means overcoming the disillusionment of those who no longer believe it\u2019s possible to walk new paths.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/strong>Allow me to once again express the Church's solidarity with journalists who are imprisoned for trying to tell the truth.
And with these words, I also call for the release of these imprisoned journalists.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
