Catholic Church Getting Back To Basics

VATICAN CITY (AP) — Pope Francis called Friday for governments to redistribute wealth to the poor in a new spirit of generosity to help curb the "economy of exclusion" that is taking hold today. Francis made the appeal during a speech to U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon and the heads of major U.N. agencies who are meeting in Rome this week. Latin America's first pope has frequently lashed out at the injustices of capitalism and the global economic system that excludes so much of humanity.
Finally, a Pope who gets it.  Contrast Pope Francis's humility with the limitless greed and preening of the evangelical mega-church pastors.

I'm really digging this Pope.
