O.K., Then perhaps something more will be said, approval or disapproval.

Explanations, clarifications, distinctions etc., are lost on most, for various reasons.

Agreed! The damage is done. Most Catholics will not suffer the time to wade through the BS found in these types of documents and will take them at face value: The headline!

"I say "allegedly" because the text in which this call appears is not by Pope Benedict, but by a Vatican office, the Council for Justice and Peace. Such an office can issue papers which do not bear the Pope's "seal of approval" in the same way that a papal encyclical would. We are dealing here, then, with something on the order of a "position paper," not a text containing authoritative magisterial teaching. "

What a bunch of straw man agruments. None of the media reports I saw on this ever said that this was "issued by Pope Benedict" nor that it was a "papal encyclical". They said the Vatican issued a documents calling for a world bank which is exactly what happened. Further, I have not heard that the Pope or anyone else in the Vatican hierarchy have disavowed this paper which was issued by an office under their control.

But the statement was made from a Vatican office, by a commission appointed by the Pope, view an official form of communication.

For most of the Catholics out there, it will be viewed as authoritative. You are right Doc in saying it isn't binding, but how many will realize that? How many will use this as a means to justify socialist actions?

The Vatican has a real PR problem if these are just a couple of rouge agents.

View it this way. What would your response be if the Southern Baptists or LCMS had released such a statement?
