Let us do as Saint Augustine did, let altruism prevail over scientific research.
In today's audience with the International Network of Catholic Legislators, a network of Catholic legislators and public officials, the first Augustinian regular Pope proposed Saint Augustine, and in particular his vision of the world summarized in the work "The City of God", as a current model for humanity, in a context where, said Leo XIV, "we are concerned about the direction our world is taking."
"True human flourishing stems from what the Church calls 'integral human development' - that is, the full development of the human being in all its dimensions: physical, social, cultural, moral and spiritual," the Pope said today during an audience with participants in the annual meeting of the International Catholic Legislators' Network (ICLN).
