The leadership of the Catholic church has always been conservative on social issues, yet VERY liberal on economic policy. I am sick and tired of hearing about “social justice” in Church. Wish the Church would avoid politics altogether.
Agreed. I am so sick of the knee-jerking on things like minimum wage hikes and universal health care without seriously considering the consequences.
It is impossible for the Church to avoid politics, since the political structure and general culture seem intent on meddling in realms spiritual.
