Monsignor Pope Ping!
Monsignor Pope: “This is a duty each of us has in justice. Too often we seek to push this obligation to the government. There may be a prudential assessment, in certain times and places, that government can play a role in rendering justice to the poor. But none of the texts above necessarily calls for big government solutions.”

Given Pope Francis’ penchant for “big government” solutions, this is clearly more Biblical than Catholic! ;-)
