Is a shift in focus to the poor by the Roman Catholic Church a bad thing?

[Mr Khan]

I'm sure some Catholics will twist it around. Like the uninformed bozo speakers my church brought in when i was in confirmation class that tried to get me to believe that the Church supports the death penalty (hint: it doesn't).

It's really only about gays and women that the church is phenomenally backwards. Everywhere else, their belief in social justice serves as a strong vanguard against modern exploitation.
