“The goal of both economics and politics,” wrote Pope Francis to British Prime Minister David Cameron, “is to serve humanity, beginning with the poorest and most vulnerable wherever they may be, even in their mothers’ wombs.”
The pope was instructing the Prime Minister in response to his letter to the pope outlining his goals as chairman of the G-8 meeting in Northern Ireland. Popes like to instruct earthy potentates because it places them in a superior position.
The Prime Minister said he hoped to help poor nations by “restoring strong and sustainable growth to the world economy” by increasing international cooperation in preventing tax evasion, expanding free trade and improving governmental transparency, which are all globalist aims for bringing about a one-world government.
Francis said in response that all political and economic activity must serve humanity and its needs, making sure that everyone has the minimum to live in “dignity and freedom with the possibility of supporting a family [including the] educating of children, praising God [presumably during Sunday worship] and developing one’s own human potential.”
What the pope is actually saying is that the economic activity and politics must be used to provide minimum standards for all, especially the poor, and benefit the common good.
While this sounds good, it really means the restoration of the feudal economy, or a welfare state in the name of serving the poor. A welfare state always survives as long as it does by taking money from the middle class and distributing it to the poor.
This theme has been a consistent mantra of at least the last several popes. Underlying it all is the goal to bring the economy under the control of the Vatican.
“For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies.” Revelation 18:3
