I’m all for private property, but this age of mega billionaires has proven to be a menace to freedom and even national sovereignty. Francis disgusts me, but at the same time I don’t want to live in a world dominated by billionaires and their “charitable” foundations.

Wealth redistribution isn’t Christian. It’s the opposite, really.

Sharing ownership is in fact communism . Although this is improper use of the word “sharing”. That’s what they do, they lie in as many ways as they can.

Hey pope-a-dope! Taxation is stealing. Thou shalt not steal.

Pope is a dope. What Paul advocated, and let’s remember Paul is NOT Jesus Christ. So many approach him as though he was totally perfect, was NOT state communism he was advocating. He said if you are the CHURCH come and share all things. He didn’t say the Roman Government should do this. Quakers would probably be the closest thing to what Paul advocated.

Not only is “redistribute” (as it’s now used) a commie word, but most leftie newscasters mispronounce it “re-DIS-tri-bute” rather than the correct version, “re-dis-TRIB-ute.”

His Vatican City has high walls too.

Islamophobic high walls at that.

Every country should immediately impose property taxes on church owned property world-wide

That idea is very much anti-taxpayer, as the vast majority of us who worship and enjoy the "privilege" of having a church in which to do so, pay for the construction and upkeep of our church.

I know you think you're punishing the Pope for such an idea, but in fact, you're on the side of government.

Maybe we should start taxing the crap out of that commie’s church to help redistribute wealth?! 🤪

Please have Francis email me instructions about how to get free and unlimited access to all of his stuff including, obviously, all of the money that he controls.

The church picked this evil guy.

The church should pay the consequences.

If it hurt the parishioners enough they might actually do something about it.

The actual amount “redistributed” to the poor is very little after Big Government takes their cut.
