Pope Francis Declares That The Catholic Church Will No Longer Accept Donations Earned Via Capitalism
2020-10-06
[BabylonBee] The declaration takes effect immediately. Catholic parishes are asked to monitor donations given during the offertory. Parishioners are to fill out a form stating where they got the money. If it did not come from the government, but rather, an evil, capitalist job, the money is to be given back to the church member.

"We don't want your dirty capitalist pig dollars," said Pope Francis. "Keep your money earned by oppressing workers and minorities. Only money earned via equitable redistribution of wealth, in model Christian countries like China and North Korea, will be acceptable."

#12  And we have a built-in spare, with Benedict XVI to be the short reliever until there's a new one.

#11  Of course its the Bee. But I know I should not wish ill on anyone, I still would not grieve if the Pope were to abdicate, even if it is feet first.

#6  Francis might have said this. It's not difficult to believe that he has gone full-blown communist. I think I'm about even with this one.
