Opinion of Pope Francis

[Velasco]

I have a highly positive opinion of Pope Francis, not only because of his endorsement of civil unions (I obviously support SSM, but this is a big step for the Church)

The social encyclical 'Fratelli Tutti' is a brave statement advocating universal brotherhood/sisterhood, as well as the poor and the rnvironment, which condemns the neoliberal and inhumane policies that create poverty and destroy our planet. Francis also takes a clear moral stance against xenophobes and authoritarian populists

Francis is the best Pope possible and a Massive Freedom Fighter. I love him

Massive Freedom Fighter (duh)

What applies to nations is true also for different regions within each country, since there too great inequalities often exist. At times, the inability to recognize equal human dignity leads the more developed regions in some countries to think that they can jettison the “dead weight” of poorer regions and so increase their level of consumption.

This quote that is sure to drive all the muh fiscal federalist cattoleghisti nuts is enough to show how based Pope Francis is.

I am a federalist myself, but I'm afraid that my notion of federalism is far away from those Italians. I mean, "cooperation" and "solidarity" seem to be alien concepts for self-styled "fiscal federalists"

I'd like to know the thoughts of certain Catalan separatists over this quote
