Well, as an American, Catholic, conservative and capitalist, I really am incensed with the Pope’s foray into LEFT WING politics.

He is not well informed on no-religious subjects, and some of his political opinions border on idiocracy. It’s great to have a well-meaning heart, but if the brain doesn’t show more skill and if that heart-felt opinion becomes policy then that makes things worse, not better. He needs to consider the first Hippocratic law for Doctors—First, do no harm.

He needs to get out of political matters and concentrate on spiritual.

The other day, though, Pope-bashing (which I generally support with this guy) devolved into the usual ugliness - let’s sell of The Pieta! Better yet, let’s destroy the Pieta! They say the Rosary! They have billions of dollars hidden behind the altar! They decorate skeletons! On and on infinitum. Really upsetting to me.
