is directing social thought and human freedom around the

Vatican's official pronouncements.
Obama, Rome & The World
Economy
Perhaps most significant to the Obama
Administration was the Pope handing Obama his economic
encyclical letter titled, Caritas in Veritate('Charity in
Truth'). The pope's encyclical, which is the highest
form of papal writing, called "for reform of the United
Nations and financial bodies, giving them the 'real
teeth' needed to tackle economic and social
injustice."
Terms like "economic and social
injustice" are typically associated with Marxist
ideology. Meanwhile, The Brisbane Times posted an
article titled: "Pope Calls for a New World Order,"
saying: "Pope Benedict XVI has proposed a new world
political authority 'with real teeth,' possibly in
place of the United Nations, to enforce an ethical
financial order and end the global financial crisis."

Ecclesiastical
Megalomania:
The Economic and Political Thought of the Roman Catholic Church The noted English political
philosopher A. P. D'EntrËves argued that "it
is hardly possible for the modern man to accept
the system which St. Thomas founded...without
renouncing the notion of civil and religious
liberty which we have some right to consider the
most precious conquest of the West."
Ecclesiastical Megalomania explains the conflict between Roman Catholicism and freedom in detail, relying on official Vatican pronouncements to demonstrate that Roman Catholicism is hostile to constitutional government, political and economic freedom, and the private property order. The "Mother Church" is the mother of feudalism, the corporative state, liberation theology, the welfare state, and fascism. Those who wish to preserve human freedom must  understand the philosophy of
the Roman Catholic Church.Dr. John W. Robbins holds his
Ph.D. in Political Philosophy from the Johns
Hopkins University. His previous books
include Without a Prayer: Ayn Rand and the Close
of Her System. Click
