Birds of a Feather

So the socialist ideologue Bernie Sanders is apparently meeting with the socialist ideologues at the Vatican this weekend, i.e., the Jesuits associated with the pope.  The harshly anti-capitalist bombast that the pope has become so notorious for reminds me of how, in the 1970s and ’80s a large number of socialist ideologues infiltrated the National Council of Churches and other religious organizations.  They did this not because they were necessarily religious, but because they wanted to capture the revenue of those organizations and use it to pursue their real agenda: socialism.  Pope Francis and his merry band of Latin American Jesuits seems to fit this mold perfectly.
