Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor’s goods. There are no special cases in which it becomes OK.

LOL. How about thou shalt not steal?

Whatever the church says about giving and helping the needy, it should never have the position that the state must steal from some to give to others.

The Pope does seem to support that, though. Incredible.

The Marxist ideology is institutionalized thievery, and the methodology of typically very much worse. The Pope did say it is wrong, but unfortunately didn’t include a lot of details. On the other hand, I don’t think we should be worshipers of capitalism, either. In an imperfect world there are imperfect solutions. The problem with Marxists is that they believe in a perfect solution, when in reality they just ignore the many flaws.
