The Pope does not speak for, nor does he represent Christianity.
She says it like anarchy is a bad thing. Meanwhile advocating tyrnany, violence and oppression via a government system. Then blames it on corporations.
Stupid. I mean, really stupid, but predictable all the same.
You explain to us how to have a functioning government if every individual has to personally consent to anything the government does.
You can't. That's why anarchy is the only moral solution.
However, one thing you can't credibly claim is that the federal government received the consent of the governed for anything it does.

Because he's a Catholic. He's head of the Catholic Church. Not all Christians are Catholic. To liberals, like yourself, the two terms might be interchangable. In the real world, to real Christians the Pope's word has meaning only to Catholics. Other denominations pretty much ignore him. The Pope speaks for and represents a single Christian denomination.
It's absolutely amazing that radical libs have done a 180 and are now big fans of the Pope....or...lefties still hate the Vatican but they keep the Pope's anti-capitalist issue alive in a forlorn dream to split the Catholic Church.

Then you acknowledge that being anti-abortion or against same sex marriage are not Christian positions, IOW,
a person can be pro-choice and pro same sex marriage and be just as Christian as the next person?

Is it 'moral' for one man to claim a piece of property as his own if he doesn't have the consent of everyone around him, unanimously, to make that claim?
He's only popular with the ignorant, the stupid, and the sanctimonious.
You tell em Fingerboy
That is why he is Time Magazines Person of the Year
so was Hitler....does being person of the year prove anything?...

Of course not. If the Pope said today that the Catholic Church was going to uphold abortion rights and all Catholic Churches would have to perform same sex marriages, it would have no effect on Methodists, Lutherans, Baptists or any other denomination. Opposing abortion and same sex marriage might be a position that Catholics and other denominations share, but that still doesn't make them one and the same. All Christians believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God. That he died and was resurrected. Everything else is up for grabs. The Episcopalians and Presbyterians split over the issue of same sex marriage and become two more denominations. Does this mean that the people who left and started another denomination have some how stopped being Christians? No.
Here's the real reason many Reps have no time for the RC church.
Start with watching the movie The Mission.
Yes it's 'only a movie' but there are many historical truths to be found about how the RC church treated stone age people.
Today go to any dirt poor place in S. America where the population is only just surviving. What's the first thing you see in any town? That's right a HUGE European style RC church. It's disgusting!
From the time of first contact with the West coast tribes in America the RC church was there.
Black mailing stone age indians to 'worship the 'White' virgin mary. It's disgusting!
The RC church doesn't want any of their 'Jonestowners' to practice birth control. Why? So more little babies will become Catholics so they can give the 'Church' money they would have used to buy food so the Vatican can pay for the thousands of sexual abuse law suits.
Yes. The substitute for leftwing Zinn history books in statist universities is Oliver Stone movies.Liberals' reality is shaped by movies. Really.
Yes. The liberals' guru is Oliver Stone and his films are what they imagine to be 'history'.
You nailed that one.
Arthur Schlesinger's work was also shelved for JFK!
We statists cannot sneak anything by your watchful eyes.
The Pope, on this particular economic issue, is correct. Trickle down is a farce that, by definition, favors the wealthy elites.
