N2  - Although Pope Francis is beloved by many, George Neumayr argues that some conservative Catholics believe he embraces many of the policies and rhetoric of the hard left, possibly as a consequence of being educated in socialist Argentina. Neumayr argues that for many decades, the left has worked to undermine the Catholic Church--perhaps the most powerful conservative institution in the world. He states that In the twentieth century, communists and leftists spread liberation theology and modernism throughout the Church, and now--via Pope Francis--the radical left has succeeded at the Church's highest level. Neumayr offers an untold story of the left's effort to enlist the Vatican in its global world order, and of the right's battle to stop it
