John Carr, director of the Initiative on Catholic Social Thought and Public Life at Georgetown, said this reformist impulse has rankled church traditionalists. Accustomed to favorable treatment from the Vatican, many American Catholics saw themselves sidelined by Francis' progressive agenda.he says you need to have the smell of the sheep,
that’s threatening,” Carr added. “He looks at the world from the bottom up and from the outside in. If you’re on top, if you’re an insider in the church, in the economy, in politics, he can threaten you.” The backlash has been swift. Weeks after Francis’s election, Archbishop Charles Chaput of Philadelphia, a prominent conservative, announced that members of the right wing within the church had “Robert Sirico, the founder of the Acton Institute, a Michigan-based think tank, considers Francis to be sympathetic to socialism.
“His dominant understanding of what business is is selfish and doing things to benefit only themselves rather than the poor,” said Sirico, who met Francis in 2013.The Acton Institute’s mission is to integrate free market principles with Christian theology, and Sirico disagrees with the pope about issues including welfare, taxation and climate change.They have adopted an extremist, “take-no-prisoners” approach unlike any opposition to John Paul II or Benedict, according to Faggioli.
God help us!!
Very telling how you made this about everything BUT victims of Pedophilia-. Disgusting when this Pope has had sine 03 to deal with it & yet thousands upon thousands of victims STILL have not been heard or the offenders dealt with. SHANE ON YOU! Sickening.
Yeah , let’s listen to this alcoholic, drug addicted ,failed writer ,wife beater , racist!! Yeah, let’s not!
Satan
Who cares what the alcoholic doesn’t like.
It is due globalism that Steve Bannon and his ilk of 3rd rate and flop farmers from the black-hole of Europe called Ireland could land up in the America, slaughter the natives, steal their land, import slaves from the Africa,
If no one else has done it if no one else can do it then I am totally 100% going to back up SteveBannon to add child abuse child for pedophilia and if he wants my help he has it.
Thank you ever so much for giving SteveBannon yet MORE airtime! It’s JUST what the world needs! Hey! How about an interview with Charles Manson next? Oh, wait. He’s dead. I’m sure there are plenty of other unworthy Look-At-ME’s! out there just waiting to spread their hate...
Uhhhhmm.
Pope is trying to make one world religion which is actually a pig farm.
The Devil, in many forms, is always looking for ways to take down the Church. Now his name is Steve Bannon
This boil on the ass of humanity never mentioned religion before this. He's just trying to remain in the limelight. What a goddamned charlatan.
Remember who he plays to—extremists in the evangelical Right. Par for the course for them.
Bannon: 'notice me senpai!'
The church has always been global.... can’t be other way. They will send that cancer named Steve back home.
ioncorruption No thank you.
CitizensAR GOOD FOR HIM!
Umm.. Not going to get him anywhere.
OARichardEngel Question, why the fucking media give a platform to this guy?
Who's Steve Bannon?
There's no such thing as white male privilege BUT ALSO Steve Bannon still has a high-profile career.
wow and to think this already didn’t happened 600 years ago
My money is on the pope
We know liberals love globalists and hate our Constitution.
Since when is it news for neoconservatives to be against the blatantly pious?
Why do people give this 'man' any kind of platform or publicity? I just understand.
OARichardEngel I think the old nazi wino has bitten off more than he can chew... again.
That might be what finally rids us of him.
Go away
OARichardEngel what will it take for people to realize this guy is slime cant wait to see evangelicals rush to defend their bigot in chief against a pope that is the embodiment of everything their jesus stood for BanBannon
Can somebody tell Steve bannon that Jesus isn't a fascist and wasn't white. Before Bannon cleans up the Catholic Church he can start with himself. Maybe he can shower and put fresh clothes on
Steve Bannon is an empty Barrell making nothing but noise. Back to your cave Mr. Bannon.
OARichardEngel Instead of being a professional agitator and self-proclaimed know-it-all, Bannon would do better to just live a truly Catholic life, aka, being humble and serving his fellow man directly, as Christ did.
What
While living behind a 65-foot wall built to keep marauding Muslims out in Medieval times. Pope Francis is a heretic. He would still have Galileo on house arrest for claiming the Sun was the center of our solar system
realEdwardSzall Am surprised it took him this long.
Why cover this man?
Not new news and don't want to give bottomdwellers a platform, but can't ignore the arch conservative agenda to destabilize Pope Francis' progressive agenda
OARichardEngel Who cares. Seriously.
Good
Hhum, wouldn’t take on the Pope if I were Bannon!! This will be the beginning of his demise!
Did you read this? Stephen Bannon Tries Rightwing Revolution in Europe - SPIEGEL ONLINE
Why does this walking cold sore keep getting a national platform to spread his hate?
The Devil takes on the Pope. Hmmm . . . Seems like we've seen this before and it doesn't end well for the Devil.
Usually stay away from religion and politics but this will not end well for him.
HE'S STILL TRYING TO BE RELEVANT. ONCE trump KICKED HIM TO THE CURB THAT'S IT.
Bannon is not wrong. Francis has recently blamed the sex abuse crisis upon the sexual revolution if the 1960's. This statement demonstrates that he does not understand the nature of the problem and calls to question whether he will be capable of guiding the Church as needed.
His lack of hygiene is An affront to most people who come in contact with him
Adriana1o5 History shows: 1942 Catholic Bishops & Cardinals in Germany denounced Hitler & Nazi ideology. Next, Adolf Hitler targeted the Pope & Catholics for the exact same reason Bannon is targeting the current Pope. In short, Steve Bannon is a vioIent Fascist just like Hitler
He should crusade against body odor because he is unkempt has bad breath And does not shower regularly BO
Disgusting.
THIS POPE IS DOING A GOOD JOB. I AM NOT CATHOLIC
Bannon stopped being even remotely relevant a long time ago. Quit giving him attention and let him fade away please
Stop publishing anything Steve Bannon has to say. He is not relevant.
The0nlyway
Well this can't be good..
He's a washed up has been with a fever dream. Very disappointed see he's still being offered a platform to spread hate.
STOP GIVING THIS THING A PLATFORM.
Of course Bannon hates the Pope. Every Klansman hates Catholics...
Why is NBC still giving Steve Bannon airtime?
He's not a new target...he was always a target. He said the Pope wasn't doing enough and he was weak etc. This isn't new at all. Banon has been trying for a Holy War for years....that's what he wants. NBC news should read it's own reporting.
Why does the mainstream media love giving free press to this toad?
Why does NBC give Bannon a platform Shut him down like Alex Jones.
👏👏👏👏👏
Congratulations to Reid’s Heritage Homes and RYAN Design International for the big win!!!!
I've got $20 on the Pope.
