Pope: Integral Development of All People Is Moral Responsibility

"Pope Francis told global business and government leaders that everyone has the moral responsibility to seek the integral development of all people, but especially those who are in need, suffering injustice or whose lives are threatened.

"'The moral obligation to care for one another flows from this fact,' which must never be forgotten, that 'we are all members of the one human family,' he said in a message read to those attending the [recent] World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland.

"Likewise, this means putting the human person, 'rather than the mere pursuit of power or profit, at the very center of public policy,' he wrote."

A recent Catholic News Service article reported on this message from Pope Francis.
