This is interesting, and it reinforces my impression that this Pope is not sophisticated in his interaction with press.
Pope Francis seems to be a bit naive, and he expects the press to correctly report what he says. However, the press, senses that Pope Francis is popular, and then they twist his words or omit important parts of his words to make it appear that PF is a liberal - in the sense that the press is liberal.
Pope Francis is liberal in the sense that he is an advocate for the poor, and wants us all to behave in a Christian manner toward the less fortunate. The press interprets this to mean that PF is politically liberal. I don’t really think this is so. It is a case that religious meaning of liberal is not the same as the secular meaning of liberal - which the press interprets as big government and throwing money at each and every problem.
That is why I think PF is a bit naïve - he is too trusting and inadvertently give the secularists openings so they can claim PF as “their Pope”.
As for the subject of global warming - PF should not be promoting this political theory. It’s OK for him to advocate good stewardship of God’s creation - but he should avoid the hot subject of man-made GW. Just my humble opinion.
I think you’re right.
“Year 1998 ran when a titled book was published Dialogues between Juan Pablo II and Fidel Castro. The work consisted in fact of a compilation of homilies pronounced by the Pope during its visit to Cuba and of the speeches that, in answer, the Caribbean dictator had pronounced. Starting off of that base, the book did not present/display greater interest in the measurement in which it was limited to gather texts of circumstances. Nevertheless, yes was more than showy its prologue. Throughout almost half hundred of pages, that introduction presented/displayed a vision of certainly remarkable Cuba.”
“It attributed its evils not to the communist dictatorship but to which it denominated the blockade of the United States; it loaded later against the capitalist system being based even on some of pontifical texts of Juan Pablo II and, finally, it affirmed that the political and social system closest to the social doctrine of the catholic church was a socialism like the Cuban whenever the idea of God was added to him. When concluding the reading of the prologue, little doubt could have that his author got along with the Cuban dictatorship and did not feel a special affection by the liberal democracy. The author of that prologue, in addition, was not Leonardo Boff, Gustavo Gutiérrez, Jon Sobrino or some other of the theologians of the Liberation. It was called, in fact, Jorge Mario Bergoglio and was archbishop of Buenos Aires. Today everybody knows like the Pope Francisco.” (César Vidal-a historian and Spanish writer with ample repercussion in expanded mass media and one ready one of professional prizes.
