The price a Catholic pays for being in the public arena

[9-10ths_Penguin]

The Church opposes socialism.

Not slavery, though.

The Catholic Church kept slaves itself until 1996.

Gibberish.

And irrelevant.

Gibberish.

You've never heard of Magdalene laundries?

And irrelevant.

Sure it is.

No

You people are nuts.

Public heresy. That's why she is denied communion.

If so, then the same applied to you as you go against the Catholic encyclical on climate change.

Thus, "Physician, heal thyself".

There are numerous forms of "socialism", and "Marxism" is just one type and is also a philosophy based on the teachings of Karl Marx, which obviously goes against Catholic teachings.

You people are nuts.

Since when is name-calling a Catholic teaching?

You are confusing socialism, a political form of government with social justice teaching of the Church.

Not slavery, though.

The Catholic Church kept slaves itself until 1996.

They also signed a concordat with Nazism, but then European Christianity has a centuries history of violent persecution of Jewish people.

The Church opposes socialism.

What is economic slavery?

Do you mean freedom? That’s what leftists usually mean when they use those words to attack free markets.

How about the Catholic concordat with Nazism, or their global criminal actions to keep moving paedophile priests away from justice, and allowing them to keep raping children in their care? So it's odd that the idea that the means of production, distribution, and exchange being owned or regulated by the community as a whole is evil, but Nazism and global paedophile rings are not?

Maybe you don't agree.

Be a dear and give us a synopsis, only that disjointed rant doesn't seem to cogently explain what is "evil" about socialism, it didn't even mention socialism beyond the title, I got through three paragraphs and was none the wiser?
