I never said it would work in reality. But you have to understand the ideals behind it and that Pope is asking people to move towards those ideals.

Socialism, forced redistribution of wealth, and political allocation of capital by elite global "managers" are not on my ideals list.

I don’t think it’s wrong to encourage people not to chase the money dream.

I don't think that's wrong, either.

If that means socialism so be it.

May your chains rest lightly. As for me, give me liberty or give me death.

And again for the 3rd time. The Pope’s only agenda is to encourage people to live to Christ’s ideals... not encourage America or any other country to be the best in the world or the richest in the world.

Christs commandments have nothing to do with socialism.

Cordially,

Amen, Diamond. YOU are correct.

In other words, Goodbye America, hello Communism. America will never be the same after Obama. How sad is that? We’re screwed.

[Almondjoy]

In true socialism you don’t have redistrbution of wealth because you don’t need it.

You need to do more homework.

And if you don’t believe in self sacrifice for the greater good then again I would encourage more Bible reading.
