It literally means “Peace on Earth”, a quote directly taken from one of Pope John XXIII’s papal encyclical which came out during the 2nd Vatican Council. This great piece is obviously about peace, freedom and moral justice. In this current world - where many people become victims of wars, starvation and injustice - peace is one thing that we as human always dream and yearn. Some people argue that those things are unavoidable - we might say that “well after all, we are human, nobody is perfect.” But I think that’s why on this year papal mass, Papa Benedict homily once again asked us to try be closer with God’s heart, so that He can freely turn us into a better person, and slowly - we can all make this world a better place to live for humankind. Just let God be God :)
Kudos for RCTI and Indosiar for keep broadcasting the papal mass, keep up the good work! I don’t think that any public tv station in the states will air it. EWTN definitely has it, but come on, they are catholic channel. But I guess the circumstances are different for every country. Merry Christmas and peace on earth! Selamat natal dan damai di bumi!
