He told his young listeners to thank God that they had instead grown up in a society that promotes democracy and human rights, but warned that "the power to destroy does remain," embodied in social ills such as drug abuse, homelessness and poverty, racism violence degradation of girls and women, and - no surprise here, at this point in his visit - false freedom and "relativism...
