"the desert of this world, parched by . . . ideological . . . systems"

"Like the manna for the people of Israel, for every Christian generation the Eucharist is the indispensable nourishment that sustains them as they cross the desert of this world, parched by the ideological and economic systems that do not promote life but rather humiliate it."

     Pope Benedict XVI, Corpus Christi homily, Square in front of the Basilica of Saint John Lateran, Rome, Thursday, 7 June 2007.
