Vatican: China best example of church's social doctrine
Look around this world we've made
Equality our stock and trade
Come and join the brotherhood of man
Oh what a nice contented world
Let the banners be unfurled
Hold the Red Star proudly high in hand
Rush - The Temples of SyrinxBishop Marcelo Sanchez Sorondo, an Argentinian, is Pope Francis’ chancellor of the Pontifical Academy of Sciences and the Pontifical Academy of Social Sciences told Vatican Insider that China is exercising global moral leadership in the defense of human dignity.
On a recent trip, Sorondo said: “I found an extraordinary China; what people do not know is that the central Chinese principle is ‘work, work, work.’ … As Paul said: ‘He who does not work does not eat.’ You do not have shantytowns; you do not have drugs; young people do not have drugs. There is a positive national consciousness — they want to show that they have changed; they already accept private property.”
Continuing in his lavish praise of Chinese-style Communism, Sorondo said “they [the Chinese] seek the common good, subordinate things to the general good.” China, he added, has “defended the dignity of the human person” and, in the area of climate change, is “assuming a moral leadership that others have abandoned.”
Contrasting China with the U.S. under President Trump, the bishop asked, “How is it possible that oil multinationals manage Trump?”
The comments come in the wake of the Vatican’s move, following 18 months of negotiations with leaders in Beijing to plot a normalization of relations, to replace two loyal, Chinese bishops with...
By Accepting Communist-Chosen Bishops, Pope Francis Betrays Chinese Christians
February 14, 2018 is a rare occasion when Valentine’s Day, a day of love, falls on the same day as Ash Wednesday. The ashes not only symbolize the dust from which God made us, but also grief that we have sinned and caused division from God.
Ash Wednesday opens Lent, a season of self-examination, repentance, fasting, and prayers that prepare us for Christ’s resurrection on Easter Sunday. On this particular Ash Wednesday, millions of Catholic faithful in mainland China have an extra reason to pray for God’s mercy: their earthly leader, Pope Francis, has betrayed them.

Last week, the Vatican announced that Pope Francis plans to replace two Chinese bishops loyal to Rome with seven excommunicated men chosen by Beijing. Two of those seven men are alleged to have girlfriends and fathered children. Most importantly, all seven men put their loyalty to China’s communist government before their faith in God.
China has long demanded that the Vatican accept only Chinese government-appointed bishops and give them full authority to rule a Chinese diocese. But Francis’s predecessors in the Catholic Church have long believed, as Pope Benedict XVI said, “the authority of the Pope to appoint bishops is given to the church by its founder Jesus Christ. It is not the property of the Pope, neither can the Pope give it to others.”
Yet in Pope Francis the atheist Chinese Communist government found a willing partner eager to give in to their demands. Pope Francis seems to have no problem subordinating his authority to a repressive communist government. Even China’s state-run newspaper Global Times acknowledged that Pope Francis has made “substantial concession.”
China’s Regime Steadfastly Persecutes Christians
Catholics, like other religious groups in China, have long suffered persecution since the Communist takeover in 1949. Under Chairman Mao’s iron fist, China exterminated all religions in China during the Cultural Revolution (1966-1976). Worship sites were destroyed and religious workers forced to return to secular lives. Many were persecuted, and some even lost their lives.
Since the 1980s, with China’s economic reform, the Chinese government has showed a limited level of tolerance to religions and believers “so long as they were under the control of ‘patriotic’ associations.” Since then, China’s Christian population’s growth has...
EXCLUSIVE: Anthony Weiner Kept Laptops Open Around Sex Worker He Was Seeing Regularly for Nearly Two Years
A sex worker who alleges to have had a relationship with Anthony Weiner from 2014-2016 has given the Gateway Pundit exclusive information about their encounters, including the fact that he would often keep his two laptops open while she was at the apartment that he shared with his wife Huma Abedin.
The investigation into Clinton’s email scandal was reopened prior to the election when thousands of State Department emails were found on Weiner’s laptop. Earlier this month it was revealed in text messages between agent Peter Strzok and bureau lawyer Lisa Page that outgoing Deputy Director Andrew McCabe knew about the emails at least one month prior to the information being made public.
The 30-year-old California woman, who has asked that her identity be protected so that her current clients would not be spooked, told GWP that she would meet Weiner, 53, at his apartment while Abedin was away and their son was at day care or preschool, which he went to roughly three days a week.
She explained that they had struck up a relationship after she had responded to a few of his tweets and he began to direct message her over Twitter. According to the woman, the duo first met in person between Christmas and New Years Eve in 2014. The relationship abruptly ended in 2016 after his sexual correspondence with a 15-year-old girl was...
