First of all, I am afraid this is a faction within the Vatican giving their own particular stand on forming a world economical entity.
What we must look at as Catholics are the papal encyclicals and our bishops in communion with the Holy Father. Catholicism has condemned usury…but that is not the same as the economic structure most of us live under that charge some interest on buying on credit.
This is not the first time people in the press have inflated individual and personal opinions by those at the Vatican.
Also, as many of us saw America’s involvement with Libya a set up for Islamic domination…now that Libya is a ‘free country’…the first think to promote is a man having multiple wives…sex.
The other is the banks charging no interest.
Christian men who live among Muslims have to explain to them the expense of having multiple wives.
The economic situation in America was brought on first by President Obama when he and other Harvard lawyers sued CitiGroup in Chicago using the race card to bring down lending standards. Then President Clinton removed the Casey Stengall Act that provided safeguards in preventing another stock market crash. Then in the Bush Administration, Barney Frank and Chris Dodds was telling lenders false hoods that the government had alot of money to finance people with unstable credit. The banks were under alot of pressure by the Federal Government, which is partially transnational now, to acquisce. Then there was alot of fraud committed by mortgage brokers, especially among the young ones along with the banks. Then you had the real estate and appraisal industry artificially raising the values of homes while the government looked the away.
During the 2008 presidential election, a friend of mine went to see his attorney. It was about the same time I heard of the race baiting lawsuits in Chicago back then to bring down lending standards. He told me that the big bail out actually went to foreign banks, and were sitting in the vaults at American taxpayer expense.
Then you had President Obama elected who came out of nowhere with connections to George Soros, who made alot of money from the fiasco. A married couple who owned Golden West, aka World Savings, was one of these who made a ton of money on adjusted mortgages and when they sold the business to Wachovia, who didn’t do their homework, and took on all these subprime loans and just about went over, the couple then joined up with Soros to form socialist organizations here in the USA to fight our traditional values. The USA is loosing billions in financial aid at this very moment to China, who has been literally involved in intelligence theft.
In the meantime in this present adminstration, more money has transferred out of this country…and some say it is the greatest financial fraud in history.
We go on and on and on and on…You look at the Gospels of Jesus Christ…and the dangers of money and power.
What the Lord was doing in the temple was retaining the sanctity of the temple, not making a statement against commerce.
And the Lord has said in his parables about using the talents God gave you, using your brains and working hard…to waste them is like ‘the evil servant’ who instead of using his talents, buried them in the sand…
