Too many Christians shy away from the social gospel, Pope Francis said Monday, because they are afraid the Church will end up looking like the communist party.

But true dyed in the wool commies dare not look like Christians. The Soviet regime had a commitment to the complete annihilation of religious institutions and ideas. When Chairman Mao Zedong died in 1976, his legacy was the millions of corpses sacrificed on the altar of socialism. Xi is trying hard to emulate him.
Not too surprising a declaration from Pope Marx.
Liberation theology rearing its ugly head?
The ImPopester is a communist, no fear of looking like one for him.
I used to think this guy was the Dictator Pope, a Peronist “sick with power,” as his fellow Jesuits reportedly once called him. But the more I hear from and learn about on this numbskull, the less I think he’s Juan Peron, and the more I think he’s Woody Allen in Bananas. He’s simply too dumb and predictable to be the one calling the shots. He’s a naive fool who thinks he’s pulling the strings. He’s more likely the useful idiot of some shadowy power-players, e,g., Soros or his ilk, or some Masonic cabal, etc.
“Stalin killed 20,000,000.
Mao killed 45,000,000 in four years.”
From what I have read over the years it is estimated at the least... double those projections.
“We ease our conscience a little by giving alms, as long as it does not hurt too much,” he said, because we fear that “with these social things the Church ends up looking like the communist party and this bothers us
“I would like each one of us take this word of the Lord as if it were addressed to us personally,” the pope said.
Secondly, If done personally, there is no confusion with communism.
As in the OT leave a little in the field for the poor to work to get.
Peter the Roman...
“What about all of the idiots that chose this guy to be Pope?”
That, my FRiend, is an excellent point. Francis is the symptom of a much larger and structural problem.
Communism kills.
There is no charity under slavery to the state.
Worst pope in many years.
But never mind that, this fraud of a pope is creating his own “new covenant”
More like showing its *ss.
Galatians 1:6-9 I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting him who called you in the grace of Christ and are turning to a different gospel— not that there is another one, but there are some who trouble you and want to distort the gospel of Christ. But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach to you a gospel contrary to the one we preached to you, let him be accursed. As we have said before, so now I say again: If anyone is preaching to you a gospel contrary to the one you received, let him be accursed.
Karl Marx HATED religion.
He called it “The opiate of the masses” and thought it was the realm of stupid people.
Marx was right, it is the realm of stupid people. After all the biggest pusher of Communism today is the Catholic Pope.
If I were an active Catholic I would say “There is no social gospel, there is only the Christian gospel, you either believe or not.” Since I am not, I can only watch as Francis does these things.
Francis continuing destructive confusing pontificating on temporal worldly social behavior has nothing to do with and avoids articles of faith. Let alone refusing to question and expound on the profound differences with the claims made by Islam and its followers simply because of its assertion of being monotheistic and honoring it. Is leading to misguided conversions and a serious fracture within Christianity and The Roman Rite .
The very least Francis could be doing is raising theological questions on the assertions made in the Islamic codex (which is their code of observance and behavior) known as Sharia, Beginning with this question

Instead of reaching out to and defending what Judeo/Christian beliefs are. Challenging the claims that Islamist make they are following God’s command when ruthlessly murdering and torturing non believers and destroy their edifices. Parties with suppressors of the faith
bkmk
How many millions of people would “Christian communists” have to kill before Francis perceived a problem?
Let’s round up the Kulaks and start shooting I guess/s
