stuff I think about                                                          










I addressed this in January (Just My Opinion), and I stand by it. Or, more profanely.

  • Pope Francis Confesses He Knows Little about the Economy

    In a striking series of admissions, Pope Francis told journalists on the flight back to Rome from Paraguay that he has an aversion to the economy, which he does not understand very well, and that he has neglected the middle class. On the plane, journalists asked the Pope his opinion of the economic situation in Greece and its relation to the rest of the European Union. Francis responded that he has “a great aversion” to the economy because his father was an accountant and used to bring his work home with him on the weekends. “I don’t understand it very...

    Dear College of Cardinals,
    Next time, it's OK to vote for a non-communist.

    "Socialism keeps people dependent on the church"

    Oh Tom; just the opposite I think. Socialists view the church as mortal enemy and do everything possible to supplant it.

    But dont you think the church benefits from those that depend on it? Much like government.

    The exact opposite Tom. The Church has been able to off-load its responsibilities to the poor, widows, orphans, etc through socialism. If the govt pays for those things, then the Church doesn't have to. From the Bishop's perspectives, it's a pragmatic approach, but also a cowardly and ultimately, an evil approach. It conflates our individual moral duty to be charitable (a good thing), with govt welfare programs (bad evil de-humanizing things)

    I promise to stay out of the Religion Business if the Pope will mind His Own Fawking Business. We already have an Idiot Pretender in Chief resident here, meddling in everything that He does not understand. I need no advice from the Vatican on Economics, Morals or Government.

    If He was doing his job, Nancy Pelosi and Joe Biden would have been Excommunicated by now.
