Be like Bill Gates and Warren Buffet. Acumulate and give it away to solve massive world problems. The catholic congregation can keep replenishing the coffers.

Brilliant sermon, Viva Francisco =) He really seems to have learned a lot from living for the last 10 years under a workers government, even if he didn't get on with it at the time!

@4 ? re-read! AID as in food aid not the disease AIDS, wakey wakey!
God is like the Malvinas, it doesn't exist. How dare the head of such an evil organization full of peadophiles lecture anyone about economic systems. If you want to see riches stolen from humanity step inside a Catholic institution. Just like KFC and cronies keep the poor down whilst feeding them lies and stealing what little they have. Lennon was correct .

The wealth of the bank in the Vatican could easily help the poor of the world but they never will, apart from buggering young boys and raping young girls what do these cnuts know of the world?
And the mindless ‘faithful’ keep giving their money to them. Buying a stairway to heaven perhaps?
