The Catholic Church is the largest charitable organization on the face of the earth the coffers are wide open and have been for 2000 years. The church could sell every treasure in the Vatican and it wouldn't put a dent in world debt.

I suppose it's a nice gesture and some eye candy for the masses however the Vatican and peace are not exactly synonyms never have been truth be told.
If this Pope really seeks peace on Earth the solution to a large part of our problems is simple, open your coffers and end world debt. After all actions speak louder than words!
Pope Francis has not covered up anything and Cannon Law is being reviewed as we speak to make it easier to remove and prosecute abusive priest. The days of denial are over and this Pope is taking big steps to make effective changes.

Evenin',
Forget the Pope.
(And I'm pretty sure y'all know I didn't mean "forget")
Until this fruity hat wearing poof decides he's going to bring EVERY DAMNED LAST PEDO IN HIS VATICAN RANKS TO JUSTICE FOR THIER CRIMES instead of covering them up and moving them around to harm even more children, I find I refuse to take any plea he makes for peace or anything else seriously.
He's a monster for helping in the cover up and at the very least should jailed in a cell right beside all the other diddlers.
How you people lap up everything this creep says like it's strawberry sherbert just defies (and defiles) all logic.
I'm so disgusted by it I could just spit everytime I hear mention of his name.
-Peace-

Who else? The bankers that gives money to the nations that are at war. T
I love that demagoguery that has NO basis in reality.
Because the simple fact the largest, and most powerful 'bankers' are government created like central banks.
Since money is fiat, and has no value other than what people place on it.
Then there is that pesky little fact that banks do not get to print their own money.
The fact that the worlds central banks regulate every financial instrument that exists.
A more appropriate description would be the worlds governments picking 'winners' and 'losers' around the world.
Both east and west.
Never forget who has all the money makes all the rules.
Since governments has ALL the money since they pull it out of their snips.
They make the rules.
Once upon a time that was the church as that is the topic.
Now the church has been replaced by the government of men.
Which can basically summed up as the 'new' boss is same as the old boss.
People have been fighting over money that is NOTHING, and 'land' and other things like 'oil', and before that 'salt', and things like 'gold', and things like 'silver' pretty much since man has been calling himself 'civilized'.

It would be nice if there was no more war but the people who profit from war has too much power.

To who are you referring to ?
Putin for invading the Ukraine, and trying to profit from it ?
Iran and North Korea for profiting from the war in the 'holy land' by selling rockets to the 'oppressed' ?
Or the 'violence' in South and Central America ?
Or the never ending genocide in Africa ?
People are being killed all over the globe, and lots of 'profit' has been made from it.

For the love of god people!
Here we have a Pope that is saying "Stop...enough is enough", and even we, on ATS, continue to bicker on about whom is to blame and why we are in the trouble we are in.
Can't we put aside the petty BS and agree that enough is enough?

wonder what life would be like if people didn't have to stab and claw hand over fist while scaling the backs of others just to get to the top?
if it wasn't for money (dominion) we'd all still have the same stake in the same ground.
who has more at stake,
those who just want to live in peace, or
those who want to make people suffer?
But that would be socialism and nobody wants that.
