Which is intended to bash Catholics. Yes, we’re all aware of the purpose of posting this article, regardless of the article’s topic. The cooler heads prevailing are on to you.

If Billy Graham or Franklin, or James Dobson were selling Marxism, I would be just as eager to get the news out there.

This is not about Catholicism. It is about the Pope's naivete when it comes to business.

And, BTW I am not anti-Catholic and I don't think the author of this article meant it as anti-Catholic.

From the article...

There can be no doubt that Pope Francis is a devoted and selfless man who has dedicated his life to serving others. A phenomenal theologian, he abhors war and poverty and is an inspiration to hundreds of millions of believers; he has gained widespread respect even among those who disagree with the Roman Catholic church’s teachings.

So it is with great sadness that I must take exception to the Pope’s views on economics and business. His hostility to capitalism, shared by the Church of England, is tragically misplaced.

When I disagree with Obama's eagerness to spread the wealth via Marsixm, I am called a "racist."

And now when I disagree with the Pope's desire to spread the wealth via Marxism, I am called a "Catholic basher."

WTH?

The Pope is a public figure. Millions listen to him. When he makes political speeches it is perfectly reasonable to discuss it on a political chat site.
