He passionately wants to end private property. OK. Then the entire vatican is open and free to all. The vatican museum is free, and you can take whatever you want. Anybody with a big truck can take the Pieta. Like the painting in the Sistine Chapel? You can help yourself to them.

Private property is 100% natural. Taking it and giving it to others is theft. This pope has broken with Catholic teaching and must resign.

If we should all share our resources, why do 50 or 60 homeless people sleep on sidewalks outside the Vatican every night? Why doesn’t Francis let them in?

“And who better to lead the world wide communism effort but the Pope himself? For the good of mankind of course”.

You’re right. The Deep State/Globalists/New World Order is partnered up with the Vatican to further their agenda.

Many in the Catholic Church, ( even senior Vatican members) say there are two Popes , Pope Ratzinger the true Pope( Popes are not allowed to resign-they are in for life), this one an imposter...which is becoming evident...end times? Many want Ratzinger back, Satan can take this one back.

The Catholic Church must sell all of its assets and its gold and distribute all of its wealth to the poor. That was the command of Jesus Himself.

Karl Marx hated religion and religious people.

He thought they were stupid.

He was right.

We have the first Communist Pope. :)

statist central planning + narrow statist political incentives and decisions + statist bureaucratic management + state ownership & state control + statist monopoly = shortages + economic chaos + destruction + inefficiencies + waste + malinvestment + capital decumulation = disaster & catastrophe & misery

"The head of the Catholic Church is advocating for the redistribution of wealth and an end to the public's "natural right" to own private property."

If the pope would remove the cellophane sealing around his Holy Bible and open it to Jesus’ teaching of Matthew 20:1-15 concerning the landowner, particularly verse 15, the pope would see that G-d has given us the right to do what we want with our own money.

Acts 5:1-4, particularly verse 4, also reflects on private land ownership and repeats the teaching of Matthew 20:1-5 that we have the right to do what we want with our own money.

Instead, as Paul warned us in Ephesians 4:14, this pope seems to be preoccupied with promoting political correctness instead of proclaiming the good news of Jesus.

In fact, Mark 8:33 shows us that Jesus had rebuked Peter for having the things of men in mind instead of the things of G-d.

Insights welcome.
