New Pope Is A Commie

[auditor0007]

Catholicism was always a heresy. Jesus's parables were always filled with patriotism, and the free market.

Of course they were.

No one should be surprised that a Pope who came along and more closely reflected the teachings of Jesus than most of his predecessors would be hated by conservatives.

The hate is all yours but conservatives prefer the free market to wealth confiscation and redistribution. While I don't have any Bronze Age beliefs I do know that Jesus in the Bible did not teach taking from one and giving to another. Paying taxes you owe is not the same as promoting taxation, especially one the size of wealth redistribution.

If you want to back up your assertion please do so instead of hurling insults at your political enemies.

Do you feel Jesus Christ was a 'commie' too?

Did Jesus advocate government forcibly taking stuff from people and giving it to other people? Or did he call on people generously to give of their own free will?

yes, he did support gvt collecting from people to give it to other people in need.

during his era, not only were the Jews taxed by Caesar, they were taxed by their own Jewish government through tithing....it was mandatory....so i guess that means forced.....and Jesus supported it, it was the Law....

And he didn't even live in a Democracy. Imagine that!

Not doubt he'd like the minimum wage to be raised in the US, too.
It costs the taxpayers a quarter of a trillion dollars to help workers that are paid too little. Wouldn't it be better if their employers paid them a decent wage?

It's solely their responsibility to increase their income, not Walmart's. It's also not the obligation of the taxpayers to provide them with government cheese.

 

[bripat9643]

What a disappointment. He clearly does not understand the lessons of Christ, the most important being that people have the free will to do good or not. It is not the place of government to take from Peter to give to Paul.

This Pope does not understand the concept of charity.

Nah. It's you that doesn't understand the topic.

The Pope didn't force any government to do anything. He just stated what the bible said and hoped people would follow. He never forced anyone to do anything.

No, he didn't force anyone to do anything, but he asked every government on earth to take money from the people who earned it to give to people who didn't.

You remind me of the Michelle Obama crowd who went crazy when she told people they should drink one more water since 75% people in America are Chronically Dehydrated. They tried to call her a communist too.

It's more like Michelle asking ghetto thugs to beat up and rob ******. I'm sure all you fellow travelers would have no problem with that.

I think what you are missing is Communists use force to control the people. The pope and other people in significant positions are using their popularity to be good examples in hopes that some will follow.

that's what communists do when they're in power. When they aren't the ask others to do their dirty work. That's what the Pope did. How is asking the government to rob people "setting a good example?"

Or maybe you can state where the pope controlled something about the topic.

What is this babble supposed to mean?

Wouldn't it be easier for people like you briarpatty to just come out and say; **** them poor working people. I got mine, **** them.

I mean, that is what you are saying. But for some reason you want to sound nice about it.
Why? Just come out and say what you really think. "**** em if they are poor. It's their own damn fault" That's what you really mean. Right?

Workers wages are at an all time low, Corporate profits are at an all time high. But if the rich buy some media to convince small brains that they don't deserve more than what they earn, if they earn, we have TODAY.

If they deserved more, then why aren't they getting more? People deserve exactly what their employer is willing to give them. If they actually deserved more, they could go elsewhere and get more.

Jesus advocated government redistribution? Where?

Wouldn't it be easier for you just to say that you feel entitled to take what I earned? "Gimme, gimme, gimme" is the libturd motto. I earned every dime I have, and the fact that some welfare slut couldn't keep her legs together and squeezed out a puppy doesn't obligate me or Walmart in any way to feed it.

It's one thing to help people of your own free will. It's another for thugs like you to shake me down at gunpoint and tell me I'm obligated to pay for the irresponsibility of other people.

 

[Iceweasel]

Did the Pope give all of his stuff away yet? Just checking.

 

[rightwinger]

Do conservatives realize what total assholes they look like for condemning a man of god for advocating for the poor?

This ain't about ME briar.

Save yourself the wear and tear on your fingers.

Just type. "**** them poor working people. I got mine." That is only 8 words and two periods. And very concise. And I am sure how you really feel.

No need to go off on every bad decision a poor person makes.

Just say; fuckem. I got mine.

I don't think they do right winger.

They only feel like total assholes IF they are not bitching about all the supposed freebies that the conservatives provide for poor people.

Besides that, from a ConChristianAmerican POV, what does a Pope know about poor people. He's a Catholic.

Just when you thought they couldn't get any more fucked up, they come up with this shit.

Assholes.

 

[JoeB131]

Francis realizes the obvious.

Catholicism is a third world faith, mostly practiced in poor countries. he's giving the crowd what it wants to hear.

Has anyone defined "legitimate redistribution" yet? What do you call taxes? At least some are legit...
