My prediction is that this thread will garner very little attention as most folks, including our fellow freepers, are too lazy to read through lengthy texts before posting their comments.
Pope Benedict's vision of a well-ordered and just society
Contrary to the MSM 'interpretation' (or spinning) of the Pope's Encyclical, his vision for a truly just society is exactly what we need at this very time and it shows great courage that he came out and said it, to pen this Encyclical, when much of the world is trying to shout to the opposite.
That the MSM has no choice but to try to spin it to suit them, is no surprise. And they've clearly had a shot at reading it ahead of us, they have to make sure to 'digest' it for us. All the more reason for the round table.
Once again, Pope Benedict has proven himself ahead of the curve, really courageous to write this at this time when the call is for more socialism and global control, not a truly just world.
And debuting ahead of President Obama's overdue visit with the Holy Father. Wow.
I imagine Liberation Theology devotees are wondering how to spin it or dispel it asap. I'm waiting to hear what our local priests and our Bishop have to say.
I tend to agree with your comments.
Nevertheless, this is an excellent thread with a myriad of views about Caritas in Veritate.
God bless all of them.
