Pope calls for peace

VATICAN CITY: Pope Benedict XVI Saturday hailed Christ's humility, urging the faithful to look beyond the Christmas "glitter" and "enlightened reason", and issued a powerful message for peace.

"Today Christmas has become a commercial celebration, whose bright lights hide the mystery of God?s humility, which in turn calls us to humility and simplicity," the pope told thousands at mass in Saint Peter's basilica.

He also issued a scathing rebuke against "oppressors" and warmongers around the world saying Christ would be victorious over them.

"At this hour when the world is continually threatened by violence in so many places and in so many different ways, when over and over again there are oppressors? rods and bloodstained cloaks, we cry out to the Lord," he said.
