As a Christian I’ll eagerly go as far “Left” as seeking to meet the needs of a person’s physical hunger, injury or homelessness; but never so far “Left” as approving absolute “equality” (so-called “equity” today!) in wages; or approving promiscuous immigration, or the supposedly “equitable” availability of abortion, automobiles, personal video games, pornography, sex changes, curriculum direction, etc.

Yes, everyone had a rent-controlled apartment and job security in Stalin’s Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. And all were truly “equal” in the Gulag. But no thanks.

Let the Marxists have it all. Let them keep Lenin, Stalin (and his man Genrikh Yagoda!), Mao and Castro, who all promised real social “democracy” but delivered hell.

We choose and seek to improve the ancient Catholic principles of Christendom, which principles will never be old. (Heb. 17:3; Jn 14:6).
