People who are poor, unemployed, homeless, immigrants, or exploited, as well as all those killed by past dictatorships and turned into rubbish by the âthrowaway cultureâ of the present: the level of a societyâs civilisation is measured by the way they are treated, the Pope said.
Pope Francis reiterated the centrality of the vulnerable as well as the urgency of countering the triple âscourgeâ of corruption, abuse of power, and lawlessnessâboth in politics and in societyâin his address on Wednesday with representatives of the DIALOP transversal dialogue project.
Capitalism will be the death of me through poverty.
Christianity would outright murder me for loving a man.
I really have to disagree with you! Some fundamentalist bigot groups within Christianity might want to murder you, sure. But the entire religion as such certainly wouldnât.
Honestly itâs kind of shocking this didnât happen sooner. Idk how people follow Jesus and then say, âthose homeless people sleeping under that bridge are drug addicts and bums. Theyâre getting exactly what they deserve because they donât want to workâ and the general glorification of âfree marketâ capitalism to the point of arguing not all people are worthy of things like healthcare or food.
To me it just never seemed compatible with their religion and if you look to South America thereâs a strong correlation between socialism/communism and Christianity/Catholicism⊠Nicaragua is a fine example of this. (See image) âChristianity, socialism, solidarityâ is what it says.
Followers of supply side Jesus gonna be hella mad.
Meanwhile, the Vatican is essentially made entirely out of gold.
Hmm, sounds nice Francis, but I think thereâs a bit more you could do besides repeating vague platitudesâŠ
