    Pope Francis is telling us to do Mattew 6:33 Seek ye first the kingdom of the Lord and His righteousness and all these things shall be added unto you. To pursue wealth because of the fame and glory it may give is idolatry...we have to change our perspective in regards to wealth as it is a means to achieve greatness and in solidarity with the entire creation. This is more meaningful and we become more at peace with our conscience, selves and the rest of the universe and ultimately with God.
    U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders
    Pope Francis is not just asking us to alleviate poverty and move toward more a equitable distribution of wealth and income. Nor is he simply requesting that we ...act boldly to combat climate change and save the planet.
    He is asking us to create a new form of society where the economy works for all, and not just the wealthy and the powerful. He is asking us to become a different kind of person, where our happiness and well-being comes from serving others and being part of the human community - not by spending our lives accumulating more and more wealth and power while oppressing others.
