urbi et orbi

urbi et orbifrom reuters: Pope Benedict delivers traditional Christmas Day ''Urbi et Orbi'' speech to crowds in St Peters Square.

Pope Benedict said in his Christmas message on Monday (December 25) a self-confident humanity that has reached other planets, worships technology and conquers science cannot live without God or turn its back on the hungry masses. The Pope said that while 21st century man appeared to be a master of its own destiny, ''perhaps he needs a saviour all the more'' because much of humanity still suffered.
