Real social justice embraces the concepts of subsidiarity and solidarity as explained by Paul Ryan in this link.

Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Holiness (Paul Ryan)

[D-fendr]

Yes, the Church is anti-Socialism and Communism. The Holy Father was at Tubingen during the times of it’s heavy marxism and has fought these battles.

What is relevant today is that all Christianity has lost much of its role to government and we need to take it back to get the federal government out of our lives. It was a long slide into it and will be a long struggle out of it.
