Pope says religion can solve conflicts in world
Friday, 18 July 2008
Pope Benedict XVI says religion can solve conflicts in a world threatened by "sinister and indiscriminate forms of violence".
The 81-year-old pontiff was speaking during his visit to Australia as part of the Catholic Church's World Youth Day event.
He said religion was a "fundamental right" of all people that could "resolve conflicts through peaceful means and with full regard for human dignity".
Yesterday, Pope Benedict met a group of leaders from other religions, including rabbis and Muslim clerics, at St Mary's Cathedral in Sydney.
