This is communism anon. Or perhaps you meant that what we think we own is really mortgaed from God. I could respect that view. Or is property owned by property owners? This is the question you are dodging.

If your answer is God, that is great, and the issue would be between God and the property owner. Now if you or some collective is the mortgage holder, you really are desribing communism, wherein the collective owns the property. So please elaborate on your interpretation of John Paul's "social mortgage" idea. Who owns the property anon; the current owner, a collective, or God?Denis Navratilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05973310336665077770noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26434163.post-60633944396518966492008-04-28T14:36:00.000-07:002008-04-28T14:36:00.000-07:00Liberalism - it is possible to make $1 and give ba...Liberalism - it is possible to make $1 and give back $1.50 of it for the common good.<BR/><BR/>Wherever Christ and His disciples went they depended on the generosity of those who had more than they did for food and shelter.
