Pope Francis dedicated his catechism this Wednesday to greed, a sin that he defined as a “disease of the heart, not of the wallet,” from which one can recover by meditating on death, since earthly goods “are not They will fit in the coffin.”
Continuing with his cycle of catechism on vices and virtues, the Holy Father reflected in the General Audience on January 24 on greed, a “form of attachment to money that prevents human beings from generosity.”
He also specified that greed is not only a sin that concerns people with large assets, but is “a transversal vice, which often has nothing to do with the current account balance.”
