His predecessor, Pope Benedict XVI, however, espoused the exact same concerns, writing an entire encyclical in 2009 in which he denounced the profit-at-all-cost mentality blamed for bringing about the global financial meltdown and called for a new world financial order guided by ethics and the search for the common good.

As a Christian, do you not bring your ethics and morality into the 9-5 world? Not everyone does, and cheating and law-breaking result.

I look at China with them locking people in buildings, child labor, putting plastic in food therefore killing babies and our pets, etc. and see that the Pope and PE B16 has some very important things to say. It's not always about us (USA) but the whole world.

Don't forget, this was written with a leftist AP spin.

Yep, and I excerpted it to create reactions like what we’re seeing.

But still... I did include exact quotes from the Pope himself. His own words condemn him.
