The “catholic social teaching” condemns socialism but not pedophilia

Worth remembering the catholic church was directly complicit in the holocaust as well as the shuffling of pedo priests around to avoid responsibility.

I was thinking it would be an endorsement at first, but, no, just the dumbest reactionary take possible.

1. Not taking moral instruction from any institution that has paid out $2 billion to the victims of child sex abuse so far.
2. Like anyone else, if he wants a vote he can fucking move here.

A bishop claiming the church is pro capitalism is more than enough to tax the fuck out of them

Collectivists, like Jesus and the apostles?

As if the pursuit of wealth and the indifference of individualism doesn’t have a history of exploitation, suffering and death?
Also, it’s so boring listening to people repeat Cold War propaganda still.

Can we not see that Bishop is blowing it out of proportion? It is such a generic statement lol! Works for all ideologies.

Lying’s a sin, isn’t it? I’m pretty sure that someone in this position is unlikely to be ignorant of Catholic social movements like Liberation Theology, so there’s really only one option left: he’s consciously lying to the public about the history of Catholicism.

Individualism is responsible for just as much death as collectivism. People can just kinda be shitty that way.

>All who believed were together and had all things in common; they would sell their possessions and goods and distribute the proceeds to all, as any had need. … Now the whole group of those who believed were of one heart and soul, and no one claimed private ownership of any possessions, but everything they owned was held in common. … There was not a needy person among them, for as many as owned lands or houses sold them and brought the proceeds of what was sold. They laid it at the apostles’ feet, and it was distributed to each as any had need.”[52]

Early Christian communities were literally and incredibly socialist. But that really doesn’t matter because it’s stupid to base your politics on a 2000-year-old religion. But if you did base it on actual Christianity, you would be a socialist.

Catholics love the undereducated and the poor. They are easier to manipulate. A Socialist society values education for everyone. They are really scared of that.

Catholic used to be pro-union.

A member of the Catholic fucking Church bringing up body counts. Is there an organization in human history with more blood spilled in its name? Woof.

I feel that the base of it – all religion should be socialist: it’s about caring for each other and society. But I’m an atty, what do I know?

Don’t tell him about Liberation Theology. He already probably thinks Vatican II was a heresy.

The Catholic Church has a stated opinion of its preferred economic system? News to me.

You know when they say it takes a village? That’s the warmth of collectivism.

Gotta love when a Bishop gets blasphemous with the “For God’s sake.”
Like, it’s only okay to do that if you’re really mad, huh?

More proof that organized Catholicism is more of a method of societal domination than a legitimate religion

Imagine being this disconnected from the book you claim to be a follower of…. Totally lost the plot.

Just like the Pharisees who condemned Christ for teaching that their way was not the only way.

I find it hilarious a bishop is against the idea of “collectivism” like, you know, the church is?

Insurance is collecticism. Democracy is collectivism. A standing army for shared defense is collectivism. A police force is collectivism. Jesus fuck, these people suck.

A bishop decrying the “warmth of collectivism” is a level of cognitive dissonance that I’ve never seen. The foundation of “Christianity” was built using the warmth of collectivism. And if thinks that’s the reason for the death of “at least 100 million people in the last century” he must’ve slept through the crusades section in divinity school. Churches should definitely be taxed especially when they dabble in, invoke, direct and discuss politics.

Catholic Church loves collectivism when it is the collective donating of their gilded temples of oppression & abuse. Sit this one out bud.
