Why do you say that when he is saying this:

**We encounter certain rather selfish lifestyles, marked by an opulence which is no longer sustainable and frequently indifferent to the world around us, and especially to the poorest of the poor. To our dismay we see technical and economic questions dominating political debate, to the detriment of genuine concern for human beings. Men and women risk being reduced to mere cogs in a machine that treats them as items of consumption to be exploited, with the result that – as is so tragically apparent – whenever a human life no longer proves useful for that machine, it is discarded with few qualms, as in the case of the terminally ill, the elderly who are abandoned and uncared for, and children who are killed in the womb.**

Did you read the entire article?

Pope Francis, in my opinion, sucks all around, not just because of what he said at any one time. He manages to say the right thing occasionally but for me it does not mean much. Pope Francis supports liberation theology, which to me is a big problem. Liberation Theology is the same kind of BS that Obama sat through at Rev. Wrights church for all those years. Some people may like a socialist, homo approving, commie loving Pope but I don’t. I think he is the absolute wrong type of guy for us to have as Pope now, but I could be wrong. The church in Latin America is full of politically correct commie sympathizers and he is one. He may even be what most Catholics want for a Pope now. I just don’t. Whatever.
