In reply to the discussion: Wealthy Americans Prove Pope Francis’ Point by Threatening Economic Blackmail [View all]skepticscott
(13,029 posts)"Catholics in Name Only". If your "point" is simply that "great wealth corrupts", why bring anyone's Catholicism into the argument at all? Apparently that smear has some special meaning for you, apart from anything in the Bible or anything that Jesus allegedly said, because the teachings of Jesus are not equivalent to Catholic doctrine.
If you're going to raise the issue of whether certain people are REAL Catholics (as you did, as the focus of your post), as opposed to simply followers of Jesus's teachings, then it's you, and not me, that has made the issue of why people ignoring some parts of Catholic doctrine (which does teach that extramarital sex is wrong, as you're well aware) are CINOs, but not those ignoring other parts, relevant to the discussion.
Now...try to focus, and answer the questions I posed without further dodging and dancing.
