Oh yeah...the Pope also calls for the UN to have the ability to take control and impose sanctions.

"The twenty-first century, while maintaining systems of governance inherited from the past, is witnessing a weakening of the power of nation states, chiefly because the economic and financial sectors, being transnational, tends to prevail over the political. Given this situation, it is essential to devise stronger and more efficiently organized international institutions, with functionaries who are appointed fairly by agreement among national governments, and empowered to impose sanctions.

Yikes.

Marxists are duplicitous and intelligent (as in savvy about manipulation) — in my experience.

They are certain they are right and disdainful of others, including those they deceive.

The pope does not strike me that way. He is lead where he goes and lacks the guile and intent I encounter in committed marxists. He is the wrong man for the job.

This is why I call Pope Francis naïve. He ought to realize by now that they will cherry=pick his statements.
