I loved the article, but there was no mention of the Pope’s, and the liberal Church’s, insistence on the “poor.” Does he not know of the problems inflicted on the middle class in the US and Europe in trying to carry half the population of these regions on its laboring back? The West is being destroyed in the name of the “poor” who have so much welfare and leisure that they are obese, feckless, and becoming a danger to society with their willingness to kill each other and anyone one else they can. People who don’t have to work to survive, who have no goals, are miserable. No wonder they become Muslims; as primitive as that religion is, it at least gives them moral and behavioral guidelines for livilng.
