Championing the cause of the poor, Pope Francis on Sunday lamented that “the wealthy few” enjoy what, “in justice, belongs to all” and said Christians cannot remain indifferent to the growing cries of the exploited and the indigent, including migrants.
Francis invited about 6,000 poor people as well as some of the volunteers who help them to the splendor of St. Peter’s Basilica where he celebrated Mass on a day the Catholic Church dedicates to the needy. Later, he sat down with 1,500 of the indigent for a lunch of lasagna, chicken, mashed potatoes and tiramisu in a Vatican auditorium.
In his homily, Francis said “we Christians cannot stand with arms folded in indifference or with arms outstretched in helplessness” about those in need. He cited the “stifled cry” of the unborn, of starving children, “of young people more used to the explosion of bombs than happy shouts at the playground.”
He also drew attention to the plight of abandoned elderly, the friendless and “the cry of all those forced to flee their homes and native land for an uncertain future. It is the cry of entire peoples, deprived even of the great natural resources at their disposal.” …

If you knew how wealthy many catholic priests are along with their health benefits and retirement....oh man, the hypocrisy.
Yeah, all those super wealthy people are eating all the food and forcing all those poor people to starve.
Which is the reason those poor people are so obese and weigh 300 + lbs.
Pope F needs to review the basics.
I suggest he start with
You shall not covet your neighbor’s house. You shall not covet your neighbor’s wife, or his male or female servant, his ox or donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbor.
Catholics, get rid of this stupid bas###d.
If some the countries from which the immigrants flow would just reject this Pope’s socialism and form good constitutional governments, instead of ruthless dictatorships, perhaps there wouldn’t be such wealth inequality in the first place.
Yes, those like Comrade Pope who with his cadre of crooked cardinals live it up princely.
What an ASSHOLE.
This POOP is a disgrace.
There’s nothing stopping him from having 1500 indigents at every single meal.
South American Jesuit priest” is just another way of saying “Marxist”.
If the Catholic church really wants to clean up its act, it can start by getting rid of this idiot. Communists don’t believe in religion. That makes this guy a fraud.
he and others look at the common worker as the problem when in reality ITS ALL YOUR FILTHY RICH that support this pope and the likes of barry......like soros....
the blame always always falls on the shrinking middle class because we are the ones paying the price...
I have yet to hear of a Pope that starved to death.
A century or so ago the Russian Czar probably lived as luxuriously as the Pope.
... and all the boyfriends they can manage.
Will no one rid me of this troublesome priest?
Damn marxist is my pope. He is the pope but I refuse to recognize him as the leader of my church
I’ve no problem at all with Catholics; their leadership I despise.
Let’s all chip in and send the ‘caravan’ folks to Rome - the Pope can take care of ‘em.
The great mosque of rome will stand in place of the palace of st peter. Its just a matter of time till rome falls, again.
This communist ought to actually read the Bible
