The title of my speech is “Christian response to the challenges facing Europe”. Perhaps there are some who think that I want to talk about the actual problems weighing down on Europe today: economic crisis, unemployment, demographic problems, migration and ethnic problems, violence, energy dependence, environment and climate change. We could discuss each of these from a Christian perspective as well. It would even be exciting, but I do think that there is something in particular, which is the root cause of this crisis, from where all of our problems – including the economic and financial crisis – really stems. My feeling is that until we are able to find an answer to this fundamental problem, we will only be able to provide symptomatic treatment to other crisis factors as well. Therefore today I would like to talk about the main challenge that – I think – Europe is facing.
