More From Pope Francis

As abraham lincoln said, if there is to be a superior position, he would rather that superior position be assigned to the white race. that superior position must be protected by those who believe in white supremacy and they will do everything in their power to make sure that that position will always be throughout the generations.
Believe Race White
I cannot afford to believe that freedom from intolerance is the right of only one particular group. and i cannot afford to choose between the fronts upon which i must battle these forces of discrimination, wherever they appear to destroy me. and when they appear to destroy me, it will not be long before they appear to destroy you.
Believe Long Battle

Power properly understood is nothing but the ability to achieve purpose... one of the great problems of history is that the concepts of love and power have usually been contrasted as opposites --- polar opposites --- so that love is identified with a resignation of power, and power with a denial of love... what is needed is a realization that power without love is reckless and abusive, and love without power is sentimental and anemic. power at its best is love implementing the demands of justice, and justice at its best is power correcting everything that stands against love.

It is unfortunately none too well understood that, just as the state has no money of its own, so it has no power of its own. all the power it has is what society gives it, plus what it confiscates from time to time on one pretext or another, there is no other source from which state power can be drawn. therefore every assumption of state power, whether by gift or seizure leaves society with so much less power; there is never, nor can be, any strengthening of state power without a corresponding and roughly equivalent depletion of social power.
