This Pope has embarked on a path that is dangerous for the church.
Getting involved in leftist political causes is a bad decision for several reasons, not the least of which is that it is divisive within the church.

Not all Catholics are leftist radicals or supporters of muslim cutthroats. Most church goers don’t go to church to support leftist causes.

It is easy for the church, or anyone else, to become involved - tyrants, leftists and radicals are always happy to have help pushing their agenda.

But it is much more difficult to drop support or go back to being non-political.

Once you support them there is no end to their demands and they will expect your support as an ally in everything they do.

I thought the church had learned something from their experience with Hitler 75 years ago but if so, this Pope seems to have forgotten it.

I said a long time ago this communist POS would eventually come out and declare that Jesus was merely a metaphor. Just watch. He has not yet begun to dismantle Catholicism and Christianity.

And he isn’t acting alone of his own accord. The entire church leadership knew this guy, knew what he was about, and installed him into power. Because they are just like him.

No he hasn’t. The “experience” was bad only because history remembers it. National Socialists are Socialists too. He just hopes that the near future will bring a world where there are no non-socialist nations and, therefore, no one to write the history of the coming global socialism.

Not to worry. The Vatican also recognizes:

Catholics and Muslims Get Along in West Africa

Not to put too fine a point on it, but there is some Biblical basis for The RCs ambivalence toward Israel .... and ....gasp .... Rome can quote scripture with the best of'em when the chips are down..
