WorldNetDaily Ties Pope Francis To The KGB

Submitted by Brian Tashman on Wednesday, 12/4/2013 10:40 am

Earlier this week, WorldNetDaily argued that Pope Francis’ criticism of capitalism is making Jesus Christ “weep in heaven.” Now, the conservative outlet is trying to use the new pope’s social justice teachings to tie him to the KGB. Of course, social justice has been a core teaching of the Roman Catholic Church — among other Christian denominations — since long before Francis became pope. In a column entitled “Communism and the Pope,” WND’s Ileana Johnson Paugh writes that she “traces Francis’ thinking to KGB-influence in S. America” and argues that social justice is not connected to the teachings of Jesus Christ but actually a “Soviet communist-led idea” that helped the KGB “infiltrate” the Catholic Church.

That play kissy face with David Icke who wrote pretty much an entire book about how everyone from Queen Elizabeth to Bob Hope was actually a Shape Shifting Alien and we are all their monarch slaves?

That's two mad men that actually believe the bullshit they've made up - yet we can't call it like it is and say the whole damn lot of them need to be thrown into straight jackets or have Dunce Caps super glued to their heads.

32 All the believers were one in heart and mind. No one claimed that any of their possessions was their own, but they shared everything they had. 33 With great power the apostles continued to testify to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus. And God’s grace was so powerfully at work in them all 34 that there were no needy persons among them. For from time to time those who owned land or houses sold them, brought the money from the sales 35 and put it at the apostles’ feet, and it was distributed to anyone who had need.
