Chris Matthews interviewed Pope Francis before he became the Pope. The whole interview can be read on:
Our leader mentioned the Pope and how the Pope felt about the poor/poverty versus the government, yesterday. Our leader needs to visit with the Pope and hear his feelings. I quote below a couple of paragraphs from the Pope’s interview that Chris won’t air in this regard – why not – what is Chris afraid of:
“I believe I’m too embroiled in the secular fiasco. It is a spiritual job, and I’m a soldier. Look at the nature of power. In Europe first and now in America, elected men have taken it upon themselves to indebt their people to create an atmosphere of dependency. And why? For their own selfish need to increase their own personal power. I’ve been a keen observer of the effect this has on the people, especially the poor. They are very good at creating power where there is no reason to explain it. My job is to alleviate poverty and if that means to oppose the cause then I will not be the Pope.”
Another important paragraph, “I mean that poverty is part of the natural condition and that is bad enough. But my task is to prevent the aggravation of this condition. The ideology that adds to the poverty must be denounced. I have and this is the reason I will not be the Pope. I have a saying for myself, no more poverty than God originally intended the fall from grace?”
All of this poverty is being put on the people to control the people.
