Pope warns against pop culture

July 17, 2008
Pope Benedict also took the opportunity to warn thousands of young Catholics about 'the perils of pop culture' during the world's biggest Christian festival.

"Our world has grown weary of greed, exploitation and division, of the tedium of false idols and piecemeal responses, and the pain of false promises," the Pope said.
