Pope speaks during Easter holiday 2006

Pope does the basics, then says: "Where is Jesus in the agony of our own time, in the division of our world into belts of prosperity and belts of poverty . . . in one room they are concerned about obesity, in the other, they are begging for charity?"

The mental landscape of modern rightie politics has absorbed an understanding of human psychology and inevitably is attempting to tether the working world to a new serfdom, reunderstanding religion's essential service to the wealthy in stopping the peasantry from killing them.
