Pope Francis is speaking as a pastor regarding the true Christmas spirit of charity toward all people. He is NOT SPEAKING AS A SECULARIST.
Yes, we do need to be reminded of the love and mercy fact. Yet, Jesus also warned us about selecting our friends. He did not accept all people into his ministry or church while he was on earth. He told his apostles to go froth and teach all men that he was the light of the world, and that repentance for sins would allow God’s mercy and love to flow into us and he would forgive us.
Trying to follow Jesus is difficult, but it does not force us to make friends with those who want to kill us.
Somehow, I think Pope Francis’s words are being modified by the press to make him look like a political liberal. They truncate his words so as to look like he is in sympathy to US Democrats. Pope Francis would never support the atheistic motives and actions of today’s liberals who want to dictate to the church and our consciences.

Uh..Pope Francine?
Jesus was a Jew living in Israel an not an immigrant or refugee...
The question “is the Pope Catholic” doesn’t apply to this guy as he obviously isn’t.
Nor has he read scripture it seems.

Someone should remind the Pope that Jesus did not travel with millions who came in and demanded this, that, and whatever, and then sow violence among the populous.

Next up Francis will rationalize that Jesus supported pedophilia because He said to “love all the children.”

Nope. Christ was born in Bethlehem because Joseph was following the law, not breaking it.

Jesus parents were complying with a census as opposed to migrating. I presume that they would have returned to the place that they left from for the census if it weren’t for divine intervention to protect Jesus.
Corrections, insights welcome.
With all due respect to the Pope, regarding his simplistic concern for migrants, I keep thinking about Luke 13:23-27. In that passage, Jesus teaches the example of the owner of a house refusing to let people enter because he didnt know who they are or where they came from.

Shouldn’t the Pope at least have a basic knowledge of scripture?

I’m not a Christian but I can’t remember hearing anything about Jesus raping women and mass-murdering crowds.

Joseph and Mary were NOT migrants. If one reason the account in the New Testament--which apparently the Pope has not. This is the account from the Book of Luke, 2:1-5:
1Now in those days a decree went out from Caesar Augustus, that a census be taken of all the inhabited earth. 2This was the first census taken while Quirinius was governor of Syria. 3And everyone was on his way to register for the census, each to his own city. 4Joseph also went up from Galilee, from the city of Nazareth, to Judea, to the city of David which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and family of David, 5in order to register along with Mary, who was engaged to him, and was with child."
Note, Pope, that Joseph took his family to register for the Roman census to (v.2) to his own city which (v.4) was Bethlehem because he, Joseph, was of the house and family of David.
In other words, Pope, Joseph was taking Mary and her child to the city of his family. They were not strangers or migrants in Bethlehem. They were going to a place where he could well have been known. Bethlehem may have been his home town.
Migrants? Don't you read your Bible?

I don’t believe history records him ever being more than 200 miles from home. That’s not a migrant.

Pope Francis is definitely allied to the Jesus was a homeless person school balderdash of Jesse Jackson.
