"Da Pope" is in "da news"

Hey, if you read the news, you are guaranteed but one thing--- that you won't know a damned thing.

The Pope may not be guilty of anything but the use of improperly constructed discourse.  Even a dyed in the wool capitalist, who was a protégé of the robber baron Andrew Carnegie, once said that the "love of money is the root of all evil".  It was offered in order to correct the fuzzy thinking that produced the much similar statement of "money is the root of all evil."  Money isn't evil in itself.  It is in what is in people's hearts that makes something evil or good.

Capitalism is superior to socialism in my book.  But that doesn't put me in the league with the "greed is good" crowd.

Give the Pope a break.  If he is really a communist, then it will show at some point.  But what I've seen so far doesn't convince me of that.
