I just looked her up. Totally liberal socialist. I guessed it from the fact that she does not wear the veil and uses her last name.

Simone, what can I say. The Pope may warrant leniency for being to the Left, given where he was raised and his education. You, Simone, what could possibly your excuse?

And, where is your Sister habit?? You don’t want to look like a Catholic, you don’t want to talk like a devout Catholic, so what is your gig, really?

That’s not a nun. That’s just an old biddy in frumpy clothes.

Not Biblical Pope -

The responsibility of government is clearly set out in the US Constitution which was carefully written in accordance with Biblical principals by devout Christians.

Ping to: “Nun: Pope Francis Believes Role of Politics Is To ‘Control Economy’”

Sounds like a socialist nun who believes that the Pope is also a socialist, and is happy.

There’s a difference between regulate and control.

Government can be useful in curbing excesses and predatory behavior, and then should leave things otherwise alone.

“Control” implies a lot more involvement than that. Who sets the goals? Haven’t we seen in the USSR and Maoist China how top-down central planning misallocates resources to the detriment of the general welfare?

When the Catholic Church, or indeed any Church, stops making the Main Thing the Main Thing, it has no more purpose.

The Main Thing is not politics, or economics, or any of the sciences. It is the spreading of the word of Jesus Christ.

It is a big enough job, and unequaled in importance.

Islam already interferes with politics enough for all religions.

Sister Simone Campbell is the Executive Director of NETWORK. NETWORK was founded in the early 1970s by radical nuns professing a strong belief in social justice but no interest whatsoever in abortion. It is so radical and disrespectful of what the bishops say that it has butted heads many times with the Church hierarchy in the U.S., as well as in Rome. In 1983, it took the side of a dissident nun who refused to denounce publicly funded abortions; when the nun refused, the Vatican stepped in to force her to leave her order.

Leave it to the media to single out one of their own. Catholic ping!

An economy controlled by pols is an economy destroyed.

he believes the role of politics is to "control the economy."

In other words, "fascism". Sometimes also known as "oligarchy".

Vatican needs to lead by example and divest.

Luke 6:42
How can you say to your brother, ‘Brother, let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when you yourself fail to see the plank in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye.

It doesn’t matter if pope f. pretends to live simply in a small chamber in a palace. Pope f. is a hypocrite because he promotes world government; he is a globalist. This is the antithesis to freedom. He will not restrain the banksters and large exempt crony capitalists. Pope f. wants to tax and destroy the middle class and nouveau riche via carbon and global government taxation. Then, he and the other globalists will divide it up “fairly” in accordance with corrupt social justice principles. So that the whole process goes smoothly, he will ensure that U.S. Citizens will be disarmed and disenfranchised.

Pope f. is an evil man; he just can’t see it because he has been brainwashed by the Devil’s ideology.

That’s pretty funny coming from the pope. He ought to take a ride down memory lane and study the history of the catholic church.
