As Occupy expresses like concerns, reading the encyclical might give insight, order, and direction to the movement, or at least be a starting point. For example, paragraphs 46 and 47 discuss the relationship between business and ethics, and the pope advises "a broad new composite reality embracing the private and public spheres, one which does not exclude profit, but instead considers it a means for achieving human and social ends." There are ideas in this document that are useful because they present alternatives to the catastrophic habits that we take for granted.Patricia Dallmannnoreply@blogger.com
