Cardinal Sturla considers that the increase in the number of people living on the streets is not due to economic poverty

The Cardinal of the Catholic Church in Uruguay, Daniel Sturla, is surprised by “the number of people living on the streets” after the coronavirus. He considered that the reason for being on the street is “related to psychiatric issues, consumer issues and the issue of people getting out of jail.”

“It does not mean that everyone is in this box, but in general who is on the street or there is a psychiatric issue or has been in prison and has been released, but the family has not received it or has a consumer issue for which they are on the street”. And sometimes “all three. But they have multiplied. We see it, ”he told the newspaper El País.

He stated that drug use is not related to poverty, “it is not an economic issue” but rather “a spiritual issue”: “And that is the drama of Uruguay. What happens to us as a society? I believe that it is a spiritual vacuum and there is a decrease in the religious sense of life that the Christian faith gives. And all that is not present, because faith is weakened, makes people look elsewhere.
