I’m not a religious person, but I was raised Catholic and like to give The Pope the benefit of the doubt. And a lot of what this Pope says lately gets taken out of context and lost in translation. That said, The Pope said what now[1]?
[2]
While speaking in Turin, Italy, he stated, “If you trust only men you have lost. It makes me think of … people, managers, businessmen who call themselves Christian and they manufacture weapons. That leads to a bit a distrust, doesn’t it?”
The pope then chastised those who invest in weapons industries saying, “duplicity is the currency of today … they say one thing and do another.”
Luke 22:36 comes to mind, “Then said he unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise his scrip: and he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one.” If nothing else, this Pope at least keeps things interesting.
