Bill Gates has revealed that his family regularly attends a Catholic church.

“The moral systems of religion, I think, are super important,” the founder of the Microsoft empire said in an interview with Rolling Stone magazine. “We've raised our kids in a religious way; they've gone to the Catholic church that Melinda goes to and I participate in.”

Gates said that his philanthropic work, through the Gates Foundation, is motivated by a desire to reduce inequality, which he characterized as “kind of a religious bellef. I mean, it’s at least a moral belief.” He indicated an ambivalence about his own religious beliefs, saying: “I think it makes sense to believe in God, but exactly what decision in your life you make differently because of it, I don’t know.”

Among many other evils, according to the news reports I've read. And, apparently, he does not see any conflict between those evils and the "Catholic" religion he believes in.

I am fairly confident, however, that Bergoglio would praise him if he becomes aware of this.

And again I say to you: It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of heaven. Mat. 19:24

Bill and Melinda gave 60 Billion, I understand, to Put Core Curriculum in. AZ took 25 million to implement it. Besides the abortion industry that they uphold, I would not say they are acting catholics in their faith. They serve Satan! And they know they do. When people put their money in the stock market, they know to put their money where it makes money and Stephen Enke did a cost anaylsis for Pres. Johnson. He educated Pres. Johnson that what makes money next to war is abortion and anything in the Birth control arena. This is true!

I meant a man in our traditional church about 15 years ago and he boasted of being a self made millionaire. I said, well, you must know what you are doing to get to that point. Yes, he was in the stocks and yes I told him what I know. Like water on a duck to him. Very sad!!
