.- Archbishop Francisco Javier Martinez of Granada, Spain has called for the recovery of morals in society and warned that “a democracy without values ends up becoming a dictatorship.”
During the opening of a class on “Ethics and the Future of Democracy,” the archbishop pointed out that today’s society finds itself before “a distressing panorama, an intellectual and moral paralysis that has no precedent.”
This has resulted in today’s culture being governed by values that “are subjective,” he observed.
The archbishop encouraged the revival of teaching values to people and reminded Catholics that “there is no task more urgent that to offer a perspective as God sees things,” because “anything else would be to work for the enemy.”
