ROME — Pope Francis called for a “new social justice” Sunday in which all well-intentioned people will challenge the reigning utopia.

Social Justice - allowing criminals off the hook based on their complexion.

The popster is certainly testing God’s patience.

I wonder if the Pope convinced those NBA players he met with to give everything they had to the poor and follow Jesus?

Just listened to this a few minutes ago. It describes why America has failed. . .https://www.biblegateway.com/audio/dramatized/niv/Prov.1 This socialist pope needs to read and take heed to the BIBLE.

How about we first auction off the multi-billions of dollars of tax-free assets the church has and distribute to the homies?

It’s called Christianity, and the Pope isn’t it.

I’d be satisfied if the church had to pay real estate taxes on all their properties in the U.S.

The pope is all in for open borders....let him have some skin in the game.

“Social Justice” Does not exist, from a Christian standpoint, ultimately, all Justice is an extension of God’s Judgement and Grace. In social interactions, there are none Righteous, no not one.

Time to take away the tax exemption.

It’s a political organization now, not a church.

If Christ is not first then he is not doing the will of God.

I guess St. Matthew’s listing of the Beatitudes is defective. In 5.6 before the word “justice” he omitted the word for “social.”

I wanted to look it up. I used to have a really thick Study Bible, but I think that when I moved here, it was stolen. Either that or I lost it somehow.

Here it is:

“Matthew 5:6 Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled. Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled. God blesses those who hunger and thirst for justice, for they will be satisfied.”

The word Matthew uses, dikaiosyne, can also be translated as "justice."
