"Leo XIV Claims the Number of Poor is Growing Worldwide — Which Is False"
On Thursday, Raymond Arroyo, Robert Royal and Rev Gerald Murray talked about the Leo XIV’s Apostolic Exhortation Dilexi te. Main takeaways.
Father Murray:
- Leo XIV is deeply committed to carrying forward the agenda established by Pope Francis.
- Studies show that where free markets thrive under the rule of law, development follows. Failures usually come under socialism. Yet Leo XIV places most of the blame on free-market countries.
- People sail from Havana to Miami, not the other way around.
Raymond Arroyo:
- A Vatican contact remarked, ‘We thought we were getting an American pope, but instead we got a second Latin American pope.’
- The categories of "the poor" are strange. They include immigrants who aren’t welcomed and people who simply don’t feel accepted by their community.
- China is exploiting Africa — stripping natural resources and taking advantage of poorer populations. Yet there’s not a single mention of China.
- If you look past the clumsy analysis and biased take on …More
Under the Vatican II popes, the number of Catholics who believe as Catholics is certainly decreasing greatly.
The last Pope was Benedict. They are building One world religion in Rome. Pray for Church as we go underground
Such a focus on poverty at the expense of desperately needed spiritual guidance is in the spirit of Judas, who groused when Christ's feet were annointed with expensive perfume.
The poor will always be among us.
Pope Benedict XVI, refuting the Marxist pseudo-theology of liberation, correctly affirmed that all human beings are poor because we all need liberation from sin. Poverty is not having Christ.
We all need Christ the Redeemer. For Christ did not come to eliminate material poverty, which was Satan's temptation in the Desert, seducing him to abandon his redemptive mission of saving us from sin. Christ did not come for a Marxist social class but to free us from the slavery of sin. Christ himself affirmed that we will always have the poor. The Catechism warns us that the religious imposture of the Antichrist, in exchange for apostasy, offers apparent solutions to the world's problems with a pseudo-messianism of a political nature that worships man and not God and conceals its betrayal behind the elimination of poverty. However, corrupt politicians eliminate poverty by killing the poor through abortion, euthanasia, etc. For example, we can see that many of Bergoglio and Prevost's accomplices in the malevolent environmentalist plan are pro-abortion, with an agenda for population control.
Instead of fighting poverty, Prevost increases the poverty of those without Christ.
Prevost's poor are the poor of Marxism, those who, according to them, have been exploited by God and the Church. Sodomites, adulterers, Muslims, pagans, atheists, and all practitioners of false religions, Pachamama, and every enemy of God that exists.
