Isn’t that what all dictators/authoritarians/totalitarians do. Take God out of religion.
They preach socialism and the state is good.
Praise our leader! He is all knowing and benevolent. yak yak yak. Or we’ll have you kneel down and we’ll shoot you execution style?
There is but one true god and the that is the state as represented by the figure head (leader)?
In 1998 Pope Bergoglio wrote “that the political and social system closest to the social doctrine of the catholic church was a socialism like the Cuban whenever the idea of God was added to him.”
The Magisterium of the Church has condemned unequivocally Socialism as intrinsically evil. Catholic faith is incompatible with Marxism.
Holding firm to Catholic doctrine and practice seems like an act of disloyalty to the pope, yet to acquiesce is to betray the Church.
