Paul Ryans budget leaves "the least of us" behind and greases the wheels of the rich. That aint right!

Where's the tabernacle? I can't find Jesus.

See the people my friend? thats Jesus!

I would pay attention to the video. Sister Simone Campbell clearly says that they would not be on this silly trip if not for Paul Ryan’s exclamation that it was his Catholic teaching that guides him to hate democracy and the poor. She is upset with your kind and so are many, many more people including many outspoken Cardinal’s in the church.

[Rodger Routh]

I would suggest You listen more closely. Ryan claims  "Catholic Social Teachings " a specific teaching in the church on social justice and peace issues. Sr. Samone takes issue with Ryans interpritation of that teaching.

[Rodger Routh]

Also there arent ANY outspoken Cardinals theat I have in the last 25 years or MORE!

Get a job...and quit living off the Church you oppose. I am sick of counterfiet nuns. Maybe if she actuallly worked like I do to raise a family she'd have a different view. Churches and people give to charity. Government takes money and gives it away. There is no virtue in that. I am Catholic and see her and her like as dangerous and a good example of the smoke of Satan that entered the Church since Vatican II

I have only one number to give to the sister. 16,700,000,000,000. That's the federal debt. We are not investing in anything we are robbing anyone under the age of 30 of any sort of future by bankrupting them before they even have a shot.

I am not a catholic. Not a christian for that matter. But I think that somewhere in Jesus's teachings one might find the idea of taking property from one person by force ie the barrel of a gun to give to another is a non-starter. Hope y'all are good with that

I'm an atheist but I want to say thank you for your dedication and service.

[Hugh O'Regan]

Certainly, in the finest tradition. I only with that our bishops would speak out in more vocal disagreement of Paul Ryan's interpretation of Catholic Social Teaching.

[mark baker]

That's not true. The church has always taught a clear difference between Christ present in people and the Real Presence of Christ present in the Most Holy Eucharist.
