If you actually READ the text, (posted on this thread around #253) you will find:
1) The Pope endorses a UN-LIKE (not necessarily the UN) solutions-body for the purpose of peaceful resolutions and other socially-positive items (hunger relief, etc., etc.)
2) The Pope (in #7 of the document, and other places) makes clear that the UN is flawed, has not done a good job, and is subject to the whims of its membership.

If you actually READ the text I did read the text, thank you very much. So what if he's calling for a "new" world body? I don't want ANY world body with the power to interfere with sovereign nations, which is exactly what any such body would attempt to do. I don't want ANY world body to dictate any more "sharing" of resources between rich and poor. And on and on.
