It was reported by CNN that Pope Francis delivered a fiery denunciation of modern capitalism on Thursday night, calling the "unfettered pursuit of money" the "dung of the devil" and accusing world leaders of "cowardice" for refusing to defend the earth from exploitation.

Speaking to grassroots organizers in Bolivia, the Pope urged the poor and disenfranchised to rise up against "new colonialism," including corporations, loan agencies, free trade treaties, austerity measures, and "the monopolizing of the communications media."

As you can imagine, this hasn't gone over well in the Congress with some conservative Republicans calling him at least socialist, and at the worst communist , therefore he was a piece of shit. Then the 3 Supreme Court stooges , Scalia, Alito and the house , Thomas, were no shows to the Popes speech in the House, which was a obvious snub. Scalia at least expressed his viewpoint that he didn't like the Pope's stance on capitol punishment, that it was inhuman. Scalia essentially said bullshit, vengeance is good

Anyway, it seems that the Pope isn't liked by the conservatives and Wall St., so you know that this guy is doing something right. Nice

The pope cannot understand capitalism. He is the head of a body that people throw money at every week. Look at how decadent and rotten the Catholic church has become. Oh wait it has been decadent and rotted for thousands of years.

He charters a jet to fly over here so he can denounce capitalism... ROFLMAO!!! He's got nothing on Donald Trump!!

Yes, I am one of the wise that rejects that imbecilic notion of a benevolent being or thing called God by some, but Frankie boy is OK in my book, he's just misguided.

Your two posts contradict each other. " mission from God is to bring the Church back to it former righteous glory" is a conformation of a belief in a god, while " I am one of the wise that rejects that imbecilic notion of a benevolent being or thing" states the opposite.

I should have written his belief he's on a mission from God. You are correct, this time.
