Pope Francis Making Social Conservatives Scream 'Holy S ... !'

My New Joy: The Holy See Making Social Conservatives Scream 'Holy S ... !' - fcnp.com

Excerpt from this article:

"... it’s much easier to bash the homos than help the homeless, or scream “baby killer” than lift wages so that families can afford to raise children. On some level, the Pope seems to “get” that one of the great cons of our age is modern social conservatism."

According to Wikipedia, Social Conservatism is:

"...a political ideology that focuses on the preservation of what are seen as traditional values."

The Bible says: "My little children, let us let us not love in word, neither in tongue, but in deed and in truth."
 1 John 3:18

I'm not a Catholic, but like Pope Francis, I also believe Christians need to be deeply concerned about the social problems of our age. Is there are Typhoon in the Philippians? Christians should be at the forefront in donating their time and money to help out. And while Christians must speak out against abortion, they should also be doing all they can to support alternatives to abortion (such as adoption, financial help for single mothers, etc.)
