Pope Benedict XV on the Danger and Evil of a “One World Government”

ON ONE-WORLD GOVERNMENT

"The coming of a world state is longed for, and confidently expected, by all the worst and most disordered elements. This state, based on the principles of absolute equality of men and a community of possessions, would banish all national loyalties. In it no acknowledgment would be made of the authority of a father over his children, or of God over human society. If these ideas are put into practice, there will inevitably follow a reign of unheard of terror."

— Pope Benedict XV on July 25, 1920 
Motu Proprio “Bonum Sane” (4th paragraph)
