great, just what the world needs, a commie pope.
Francis the Fatuous
The pope sure has a big house and lots of servants and a gold roofed workplace....
is he not rich?
Voluntary sharing with the poor is something Jesus encouraged. As long as the Pope is not advocating government confiscation from the rich to give to the poor, he’s preaching Christianity, not Communism.
I don’t think he is telling the government to give more he is talking to the rich as a group and as individuals - it is good for people to give in a cheerful and happy spirit - it is good for their souls and it is good for those who receive it in the same spirit. As a spiritual leader it is his job to tell us stuff we may not like for our eternal sake that doesn’t make him a commie - being a commie is when you support the governments forcible taking of wealth and assets and redistributing them to those they see fit. There is no generosity of spirit in the giving or receiving and it is a detriment to the well being of both.

Although I know this is not funny at all and the “solidarity” and “Social” Justice is pure Communism——I did laugh at your post.
That being said, this pope is becoming a great disappointment. A couple things really bothered me after he was “elected”.
The Catholic Canon is about subsidiarity-—not collectivism!!!! It never was-—it is about individual salvation-—not “collective” salvation, and I am really not liking this “pope” and I do love Thomistic Theology and much about Catholic Traditions/Saints-—pre-Vatican II.
BUT......I have been following the corruption of the Catholic Church (Fr. Oko’s Report on Homoheresy). And I read Pope Pius X encyclical. Pascendi in 1908 or so which warned us about this “take over”-—from inside......and Bella Dodd’s book on the homosexual Marxist infiltration in the 30’s and 40’s....so it is not surprising.....especially since the “jesuits” have “educated” some of the most immoral, radical, vile atheists, that ever existed.
It is amazing to me how “intelligent” Jesuits are—They are brilliant, but can be so incredibly evil. There is nothing more vile and dehumanizing than Marxism and they should understand that—because of the understanding that Catholic Theology has of human nature and Good and Evil/Natural Law.
It is rather disgusting to see the corruption of all our institutions. George Carlins rant on the Illuminati is probably true from the looks of the world. The NWO is in place for the kill. There is nothing to stop them-—nothing.
HE’S THE POPE...It’s his job to look out for the poor. Yikes, people.
He is not a commie Pope.
Have you every heard about the Works of Mercy?
Feed the hungry
Clothe the naked
Do you get the idea?
And Jesus will say, “Whenever you did it one of these least of my brothers, you did it unto me.”
