I believe to answer your question though, a “good” Marxist to Francis is probably a person, who though not Catholic, follows his conscience. So all’s good.

So let me get this straight…if a person's conscience leads him to believe in something immoral, unworkable, and evil like Marxism, it's okay as long as it was reached through his conscience? Sorry, I do not agree……that only indicates a flawed conscience….or perhaps a lack of understanding of what Marxism is and who Marxists are.

Oh, and she is Catholic. Funny enough, all that do-gooding and elevating the poor as morally superior to the rich does seem to predispose a lot of Catholics I know to believe in leftist bollocks for some reason...

I am just trying to define a "good Marxist" as Francis might define one based on his following comments in recent weeks:

Everyone has his own idea of good and evil and must choose to follow the good and fight the evil as he conceives them. That would be enough to make the world a better place.

Trust me, I am in no way defending it.
