Vatican: Reject ‘Use of the Term Minority,’ Develop ‘Concept of Citizenship’
Breitbart ^ | 18 July 2019 | EDWIN MORA

Posted on 07/18/2019 7:10:17 PM PDT by KC_Lion

WASHINGTON, DC — Societies must end the use of the word “minority” and redefine the “concept of citizenship,” a top Vatican official argued Thursday at a religious freedom event hosted by the U.S. Department of State.

The comments from Archbishop Paul Richard Gallagher, the Holy See’s secretary for relations with states, came during a three-day summit, July 16 through 18, at the State Department — the second annual Ministerial to Advance Religious Freedom.

Gallagher said there is a “need to develop and respect the concept of citizenship,” adding:

The concept of citizenship is based on the equality of rights and duties under which all enjoy justice. It is, therefore, crucial to establish in our societies the concept of full citizenship and reject the discriminatory use of the term ‘minority,’ which engenders feelings of isolation and inferiority. Indeed the equal protection and rights under the law remain an essential ingredient of the fair application of justice for all, underscoring the equal dignity of every person.

Pope Francis has advocated globalization and warned against “nationalism that raises walls” as well as unfettered capitalism.

The pope appears to favor a blurring of international boundaries, urging wealthy countries to open their borders to everyone in need.

The pope has railed against rising populism and increasing hostility towards illegal immigration, suggesting Christians should reject sovereignty and embrace globalism to make the globe a better place.

How long until the False Prophet calls down fire from the sky in plain sight of men?

Dunno. But they sure got a thing for Globalism.

No national sovereignty.

No borders.

A Palestinian state.

It’s like the United Nations a lot.

Oh yeah, Global Warming (TM) too.

Been up for well over 1,000 years. Doesn't go all the way around but the Varican has some of the highest security, reportedly. Maybe just in some areas.



Don't worry pope-boy Francis, we'll just have our walls up for over 1,000 years too, K?

The Vatican is a sovereign state. It is enclosed by giant walls and doesn't let immigrants in.

Shut up Francis.

One world government and one world religion.

Satan’s dream to be his own little god controlling everyone and with everyone worshiping him.

“No borders - No national sovereignty” .

On a micro level, does that mean no families or individual property rights? “Imagine” that!
John Lennon’s BS makes less sense than it did in 1971.
Whether family, backyard or national border, “always secure your perimeter”.

Does this mean the Pope opposes affirmative action? My priests don’t speak against it (regardless of how openly discriminatory it is). Oh well, they can just have those “preferred minorities” fund their club.

Good luck with that.

The pope wouldn’t know a Christian even if he actually met one. Christians spread the Gospel of grace not socialism and worse

If things like this actually occurred would stuff like this go on ?
MOSES’S OPUSES
SATIRE OF L.J. (MOSES) KESLIN

Protesters Question Archbishop’s Loyalty To US
Protest LA Archbishop Jose Gomez Residence

Dozens of protesters have shown up at Archbishop of Los Angelus Jose Gomez residence. Many carrying American flags and bearing signs questioning Gomez’s loyalty to the US not Mexico along with many signs demanding equal rights for American citizens in Mexico.
The protest was apparently triggered by the clerics decision to push forward with his predecessors decision the disgraced Cardinal Mahoney by offering amnesty thus citizenship to Mexicans who crossed the border illegally. While thousands of Americans in Mexico suffer under 2nd class citizenship unable to own property and suffer indignitys let alone participate in Mexican elections while living there in Mexico.

A spokeswoman for the group, *Harriet Hildegarden insisted her group consists of Catholics loyal to the church. “We will be protesting at other locations where prominent clergy of the church have sided with the Obama regime”. “Hildy” claims the church is supporting the democrat party which denied God at their convention and declared what she claims is war on the Catholics but would collude with it on “social engineering” issues including “amnesty” . When asked if she may be denied communion for her activities her reply was “Well it’s been known that when that happens quicker when clerics get personally attacked than when some politician challenges the church on the grounds of faith and morals” * Fictional name used not intended to reflect on any so named person living or deceased

He’ll get his 7 years of Tribulation.

And 3-1/2 years of his anti-messiah.

I heard he had $800 million in the bank whenever the attack happened.

Quite a bit opposite of the old song. Which people still get misty-eyed about. Which always makes it time for an eye-roll.

I can’t recall a single time during the current Papacy when a statement made by the Pope or his subordinates is at all consistent with what the nuns taught me in Catholic school during the 50s and 60s.

Top Vatican Officials (the ones from loooooong ago) don’t get much respect here from FR Catholics; just like the current Vicar of Christ.

Anyone know what it takes to get a “Green Card” (or citizenship) in Vatican City?

Brings to mind the movie The Ten Commandments which I watched the other night after the Huckabee Show on TBN.

Where Aaron throws down the staff of Moses and it turns into a serpent,

Then the pharaoh’s priests throw down theirs and they turn into serpents also

Them Moses’ serpent devours satan’s serpents

(Just in case lurkers don't know where to read the passage - Revelation 13:13)

This prophecy is going to be fulfilled, to the letter. You can bank on it. Yes, pun intended. The Antichrist First Beast comes as a "Political Leader", and then the False Prophet Second Beast "Religious Leader" exercises all the same powers and does this:

-------------------------

Revelation 13:11-18 King James Version (KJV)

11 And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.

12 And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.

13 And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men,

14 And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.

15 And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.


16 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:

17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.

18 Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.
