Our country will go to even more dangerous destruction if this corrupt system continues – Cardinal
Archbishop Malcolm Cardinal Ranjith says that if the current corrupt system of governance in the country continues, it will lead to even more dangerous destruction.
The archbishop said this while participating in a religious programme held on the 150th anniversary of the Most Noble Rosary Parameshwari’s Church in Aluthgama.
The archbishops said, “In the 74 years since we gained independence, this country has gone backwards. The reason is that a few selfish people have been made leaders in our country. In the past, what they did was divide nations and come to power. Starting from 1956 until 2019, that difference has been brought forward.
These people tried to spread sectarianism, religious differences. They tried to create sectarianism by using the Easter attack. We did not get caught in the knot of religious differences. But that is the target of those people. After that, they created an economic division, created a social system to increase violence and terror in the country.
So what happened when all this was done? It was not found to be happy and comfortable. Today, all of us in Sri Lanka are living in a very uncomfortable situation. I don’t know what will happen when I wake up tomorrow morning. We should work to change this corrupt system in this country through prayer and active participation as much as we can.
If this corrupt system continues, our country will take a step towards even more dangerous destruction. We must lead the country on the right path. That is our responsibility to commit ourselves, dear brothers and sisters, as Christians. That is what we are assigned to do.”
