In a new letter to Roman Catholic leaders, Pope Francis is pushing for communist policies to be adopted on a global scale "for the good of all. "The head of the Catholic Church is advocating for the redistribution of wealth and an end to the public's "natural right" to own private property.

And who better to lead the world wide communism effort but the Pope himself? For the good of mankind of course.

Communism only works in small communes, until the producers tire of lifting everyone else up and leave.

No private property means every decision IS political, and not for the “good of all”.

Having private property means the individual can use, sell, keep OR SHARE the excess of what they produce, because they have the security that what they own is theirs. Capitalists and capitalist minded individuals are the biggest charitable donors in the world, from all their different income levels.

Having no private property always means there winds up being less for everyone. less abundance, and therefor less to share.

The Marxist fellow travelers, like Francis might be, never understood that Marxism is a recipe for getting and holding onto power, and for nothing else. It exists only as a mechanism for obtaining and keeping power. The folks like Francis are simply idiots, unless they are in fact not mere idiot fellow travelers but actual, “we want power” Marxists. Which one is Francis.

I’m Catholic. The Pope can speak on matters of pure faith and I will accept his words. BTW, such a right has been very rarely used by Popes. Christ, the Bible and tradition have already taught us what we need.

when the Pope speaks on economics, or the environment, politics, or government social policy, I’m free to respectfully consider him an @$$hole.

American catholics will have to break away from the vatican, or they will be broken away from America.

It's just like protestants/evangelicals that stay in churches that they know are not "Scripturally correct" and not missions minded with concern for the unsaved.

Not one single thing this “pope” has ever said or done is even slightly consistent with what the nuns taught me during 10.5 years of Catholic schools during the 50s and 60s.

Pope 'Francis the Heretic' needs to publicly state that Capitalists and those employed by Capitalists must cease donations to the Church.

The Heretic needs to publicly state that the Church will immediately begin paying taxes on land in Capitalist countries since accepting a tax break is the same as being paid by Capitalists.

The Heretic also needs to publicly state that Catholic organizations will refuse grants from Capitalist governments for charity work.

...or else he's just a HYPOCRITE.

The next Pope needs to once again suppress the Jesuit Order, and this time, for good.

All right — that's it. I've been very, very patient with this far-leftist Pope, forbearing to publicly criticize its many, many idiotic statements, but this is the last straw. I now officially spit on this commievermin and hope fervently for it to drop dead in convulsions of agony. With only the faintest of apologies to my Roman Catholic friends, who likely are equally as disgusted and appalled at how their supposed supreme religious leader has shown its true colors. :-(

The man is insane. Truly. Communism has such a bad name that most commies hide behind euphemistic terms. Pope Franky is stark staring mad.

He would set his papal throne atop a mountain of the skulls of the victims of the communist regime he longs to build.

By their fruit you will recognize them. Do people pick grapes from thornbushes, or figs from thistles? Likewise, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit.

What has communism produced other than death, poverty, and tyranny on a massive scale? Jim Jones preached the same thing as this pope.

The Pope can go F-— himself, he is the most loathsome hypocritical leftist on the planet!!

SHUT UP, Francis, and go hide behind the massive Vatican City walls, where you are waited on hand and foot—like a king—in the luxurious palaces.

Or maybe you need to just OFF YOURSELF, for the good of the church, for the good of the world.

You make me SICK, Commie Francis!!!

The next Pope will be just like him or worse.
The ImPopester is stacking the cardinal deck.

Someone must alert the GOOD Italian, South American, and African Cardinals that SOMETHING MUST BE DONE ABOUT FRANCIS.

The Africans are the truest, strongest believers in what the Church really teaches.

I pray they will be our saviors.

Interesting, how are Catholics doing in communist China?

Oh, and what religion was allowed in communist Russia?

Lastly, lots of Catholics in Venezuela, how is their quality of life? What about Romania or Cuba?
