Catholic-Orthodox Statement Notes Problems With Declining Global Birth Rates

Washington, DC (LifeNews.com) -- Participants in the First European Catholic-Orthodox Forum chose to emphasize the coming crisis of declining birth rates as the main topic of their meeting. That came as a delight to the producer of the move Demographic Winter, who says the underpopulation problem is growing. Meeting in Trent, Italy earlier this month, 30 delegates from the Orthodox Churches, European Bishops Conference and the Vatican met to discuss their common concerns on family matters. In their joint statement, "The Family: A Good for Humanity," the delegates observed that, despite the current focus on the global economic crisis, "Another vital element of this turning point is the crisis in regard to the family." "The demographic trends alone in Europe are clear signals of a crisis much greater than the financial one," the statement said. It added that families and their resulting children "needs to be rediscovered as valuable social capital."
