Alan2273 Posted October 6, 2008 Report Share Posted October 6, 2008 With the catholic church being one of the richest churches in the world, he has no right to talk about the pursuit of wealth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-pops- Posted October 6, 2008 Report Share Posted October 6, 2008 Not much different to the C of E - one of the biggest landowners in the country.How did they acquire this wealth? They didn't get the ecclesiastical cheque books out, I'm sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catgate Posted October 6, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2008 Have you seen their portfolios. RC and CofE?I think this message is to persuade people of the faith to take heed and not sell.But then I could be wrong.I reckon if leaving money to the cat's home would get you to the promised land the cat's homes would be just as wealthy.
