Pope denounces the man wants to be today "like God"

Rome. .- Benedict XVI celebrated Palm Sunday Mass in the Plaza de San Pedro and recalled in his homily that "today more than ever" men "are filled with the desire to be like God," to achieve "the same height of God. " "We have the ability to fly, we can meet, listen and talk from one end to another of the world," explained the Pontiff.

However, he warned that with "human capabilities, has grown only good" but "also have increased the possibilities of evil" is presented "as threatening storms of history." Moreover, Benedict XVI underlined that "we also remain limits" of human beings and recalled "the catastrophes that have afflicted in recent months and continue to afflict humanity." Before thousands of pilgrims gathered in St.

Peter's Square, Pope stressed that "in all discoveries" man "seeks ultimately get wings" to be "independent, completely free, as is God." The man, Benedict XVI has stressed, is "at the point of intersection between two fields of gravity." On the one hand, the force "that draws him down, selfishness, lies, and to evil" that "separates him from the heights of God" and other "gravity of love of God" that "gives true freedom "and" draws upwards, "added the Pontiff.

Moreover, the Pope has stated that "everything depends on the escape of the gravity field of evil and be totally free of being attracted by the gravity of God" that "makes us authentic, lifts us and gives us true freedom ". The heart of man is "the center that unites the intellect, will and feeling, body and soul" in which "the will, intellect, emotion and soul are united in the knowledge of God" but "It must be high," the Pontiff stressed.

However, the Pope recalled that the man "is able" to raise "because it is too weak." Thus, Benedict XVI has pointed out, Christ "descended to extreme baseness of human existence, to rise to it, to the living God "because" the only way our pride could be overcome. "Pope said" the humility of God "is" the ultimate form of love "that" attracts upwards.

"Moreover, Benedict XVI said that" the great technical achievements make us free "and are" elements of human progress "only if the man is in search of truth" and "leaves the pride of wanting to be God himself. "The Pope has stressed that every man needs the humility of faith that seeks the face of God and is entrusted to the truth of his love" to "ascend to the height of its true to be.

" On the day the Church celebrates Jesus 'entry into Jerusalem, Benedict XVI has declared that Jesus' ascension into the "holy city" is "a path to common holiday of Passover, commemorating the deliverance from Egypt and sign of hope in the final release. " At the end of the celebration, a youth group has given the Pope the new catechism for young 'Youcat', which has been prepared under the direction of the Archbishop of Vienna, Cardinal Christoph Schönborn for delivery to the young people attending the World Youth Day Youth next August in Madrid.
