Pope Benedict XVI, Œconomist

News of a "forthcoming social encyclical" and "a synthetic, two-level overview of the economic crisis" — Pope blames idolatry of money for economic crisis.

His Holiness cites "the idolatry of money as a major shortcoming of the economic order." (Could fiat money be considered a kind of idolatry?) Also, the wise counsel lost on the planners "that large-scale reform cannot be achieved without individual reform and conversion."
