A Moral Challenge for Pope Francis

ROBERT STEELE: Ray McGovern has always been a gold standard for intelligence and for integrity, two things lacking in Washington DC and — to a large extent — in most other networks including the Catholic Church. He makes important points in this article.
The Pope is a Jesuit — most know that the Jesuits created the concept of Liberation Theology that has been in stark contrast to Griftopia and War as a Racket. What most do not know is that the Jesuits have been gutted – cut in half — in the past two decades. The Pope is dealing with a Church that is ultra conservative and in favor of war — it serves the elite while driving the progressive elements out of the Church.
There are two populations growing right now: Latinos, and Muslims. The Pope is standing at that intersection.
