More appropriately, it is this leftist imitation pope who is the dung of the devil.

Like most libs he doesn’t have a problem spending someone else’s money. Like most left wing loons he doesn’t address the real problems infesting a somewhat free world . In other words h is a commie hypocrite and is totally useless.. If he is a Christian then the world is flat

I’m now going to be Lutheran! Dropping my Catholic faith after nearly 70 years. This pope is a dufus. Where’s the co-pope that resigned?

Truly human dignity and religion flourish in socialist utopias like Venezuela, Cuba and North Korea.

The Jesuit brain-works do have a long history of manufacturing Created Things and inflicting them upon the farm.

Evidently they were Marxists, before Marx was.

Unfettered is the key word. What fetters would he propose to put upon it?

The Popes’ complaints about “unfettered capitalism” are about as timely as warnings against the fox trot and rumble seats.

Could be the altitude in La Paz...it makes one a little lite-headed.

I find it hilarious that this moron keeps yapping about the evils of Capitalism from Socialist third-world-S#*t-Holes that are totally failed economies.

Wonder what he’ll yammer about when he gets to Argentina, the home of the original dumpster divers.

To be fair to His Holiness, "dung of the devil" refers to the "unfettered pursuit of money" rather than "unfettered capitalism".

Capitalism does not advocate "unfettered pursuit of money". For example, it proscribes fraud and coercion in the pursuit of money.

However, the braindead in the progressive movement and the MSM are incapable of making such distinctions.

Unfortunately, His Holiness also seems incapable of making such distinctions. In all likelihood, he actually did mean this as an assault on capitalism.

Here's the "dung of the devil" quote in context:

Today, the scientific community realizes what the poor have long told us: harm, perhaps irreversible harm, is being done to the ecosystem. The earth, entire peoples and individual persons are being brutally punished. And behind all this pain, death and destruction there is the stench of what Basil of Caesarea called “the dung of the devil”. An unfettered pursuit of money rules. The service of the common good is left behind. Once capital becomes an idol and guides people’s decisions, once greed for money presides over the entire socioeconomic system, it ruins society, it condemns and enslaves men and women, it destroys human fraternity, it sets people against one another and, as we clearly see, it even puts at risk our common home.
The "dung of the devil" part is less offensive than the explicit statement that, when used to guide decisions, capital destroys ruins human society, etc. That is just arrant nonsense.

It’s the “fettering” that’s the “dung of the devil”.

Capitalism loosed from the restraints of morality is evil. Not sure why people are having a problem with that.
