Socialism has resulted in poverty, repression, death
To the editor:
I want to thank the Catholic Herald for running the excellent article on Pope Leo XIII’s assessment of socialism as evil. It truly is.
Socialism, with its tempting allure of equality, has not produced equality, only poverty, repression, and death. Socialism has manifested itself worldwide in many forms and variants, but always with a similar end result of poverty and death.
Whether it was the millions killed in the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, the genocide of Hitler’s German Socialist Workers Party, or the mass desert graveyards of Saddam Hussein’s Arab Socialist Ba’ath Party in Iraq, the result is always the same.
Bringing children in Baraboo and Cuba together
“Only the human person, created in the image and likeness of God, is capable of raising a hymn of praise and thanksgiving to the Creator. The earth, with all its creatures, and the entire universe call on man to be their voice.”
Pope John Paul II — Homily, San Antonio, Texas 1987
BARABOO — This year, the fourth and fifth grade students at St. Joseph School in Baraboo became that voice talked about by Pope John Paul II and so much more — through their participation in Children Are The Hope (CATH), a project that aims to connect Wisconsin children to Cuban children through environmental and cultural education.
Children Are The Hope is an organization based in Wisconsin, partnering with the Empresa Nacional para la Proteccion de la Flora y Fauna and University of Havana in Cuba, along with nearly 20 primary and elementary schools from the north-central region of Cuba and the southern half of Wisconsin.
