Comments here look like a FreeRepublic message board. Thank you, MadMolecule, for putting a little perspective in this. I seriously doubt the priest was talking about stealing things like flat-screen TVs & the like. I'm sure he meant food, clothing, etc. which sounds reasonable to me. Especially given violent/self-destructive crimes as a possible alternative. The priest is right: society has screwed the poor.
