Couples who refuse to have children are selfish - Pope Francis

Jokpeme Joseph Omode February 13, 2015

 Pope Francis  has caused quite a stir after he  branded couples who choose not to have children 'selfish' and said they are part of a 'greedy generation.'

He made the remarks in front of a large crowd during his weekly general audience in St Peter's Square, Rome.' According to the Guardian the pontiff said...
A society with a greedy generation, that doesn't want to surround itself with children, that considers them above all worrisome, a weight, a risk, is a depressed society,
'The choice to not have children is selfish. Life rejuvenates and acquires energy when it multiplies: It is enriched, not impoverished.'
