On Eve of Election, Pope Francis Stumps For Hillary
The Remnant ^ | November 6, 2016 | Michael Matt

Posted on 11/06/2016 4:12:16 PM PST by ebb tide

Though he mentioned neither candidate by name, it was obvious that Pope Francis was less than concerned that his talking points were bound to put him in Hillary Clinton's corner, just hours before the U.S. election.

Americamagazine.org reports:

In a speech delivered at the Vatican just three days before the U.S. presidential election, Pope Francis urged social justice activists from around the world not to give into the politics of fear by building walls but instead work to build bridges. “Because fear—as well as being a good deal for the merchants of arms and death—weakens and destabilizes us, destroys our psychological and spiritual defenses, numbs us to the suffering of others,” he said.

“In the end,” he continued, “it makes us cruel.”

The pope did not mention the Nov. 8 U.S. election, but many of the themes he touched on have played out in debates between Donald J. Trump and Hillary Clinton in recent months...

The pope said on Saturday that Christians should not give into the temptation to build walls, even in the face of “hateful and cowardly attacks,” a reference to global terrorism. “Dear Brothers and Sisters,” he said, “all walls fall.” READ ARTICLE HERE

REMNANT COMMENT : Gee, I wonder who he's talking about. "All walls fall"? Maybe he's hinting that Hillary's prison walls won't keep her behind bars forever. Yeah, that's gotta be it.

But seriously, Remnant columnist Elizabeth Yore seems to have a point when she writes that Clinton/Soros have managed to coopt the Vatican and make a surrogate out of Pope Francis. God help us.

In the meantime, Trump's message to Catholics isn't too bad. Check it out:

Dope Francis is nothing but a marxist suck-up. I have a basset hound that knows more about fundamental economics than he.

That Pope sure is one hell of a Catholic. Or maybe he’s just going to Hell.

If you are a liberal/communist/socialist, marxism is your top ideology. Even if you are a Pope, head of the largest Christian faith on earth, your marxist ideology will come before other things such as abortion, religious freedom, standing with Israel, fighting islamic terrorism, and other second rate ideologies.

Besides all that I wrote in my previous post, everyone should be aware that Crooked Hillary HATES:

Orthodox Christians.

Roman Catholics.

Evangelical Protestants.

If she knew about and took notice of conservative Protestants such as Missouri Synod Lutherans, she would HATE them too!!!! Perhaps she holds them in contempt instead!

ALL we American Christians need to unite as one fist, and punch out Crooked Hillary clinton on November 8!!!! Then we all need to demand that she be prosecuted, and sent to prison!!! Enough is enough!!!!

Why is the Pope even getting involved here?

Why isn’t he talking about squashing abortion and NOT voting for Hillary?

He wants the Church to get involved in US politics, then it’s high time we tax them as a political organization.

Francis is a demon if he supports the Clinton/DNC abortionists. Fruck Fancis.

“The pope is probably too uninformed even to know Mrs. Bill’s position on rampant abortion. “Infallible”, not!”

He knows. Doesn’t care. Social justice is more important.

How does the "Pope" support someone that promotes abortion up to and even after birth?

The antiPope supports the antiCHRIST.

No, just a disciple, sowing deception. Too many already up to their eyeballs in the deception.

He never talks about the Christians getting slaughtered by some of the same people coming in as refugees.

He never talks about why Syrian Christians are not being allowed in as refugees, only Muslims.

I remember watching a 60 minutes interview with Rastafarians back in like the 70’s and they kept saying F the Pope and giggling. I am in complete agreement with them when it comes to this Pope for sure. F the Pope, only I am not giggling.

This jerk wants to flood America with illegal alien Mexicans because he thinks that way he can turn America into a catholic theocracy and he has DEFINETLY POLIICIZED CATHOLICISM just as the Islamic extremists have politicized Islam. He doesn’t care that actual terrorists will cross our borders to commit murder, he doesn’t care that illegals are bringing in the drugs and are lawbreskers as soon as they cross our border, he doesn’t care that Hillary is the most corrupt politician who has ever run for the office and the Clintons have broken every commandment multiple times over including stealing, rape and murder, in fact he doesn’t give a rat that every commandment is rapidly becoming worth less than dog crap as far as respect as our nation dies because of politicians like this Poop and after another 8 more years of this Democrat regime we will be debased to such a shameful level we may as well be just another turd world South of the border or African corrupt and crime ridden plutpcracy in mass poverty, this Poop doesn’t care about God because he is just like your typical leftist Democrat and his politics are more loved by him then the millions of babies murdered or our freedoms looted by the scum of the earth.

He can go eat dog crap, I am not ashamed to say I hate this guy now just like I hate Comey because I am literally fighting for my very survival and my freedom and liberty itself and this guy has his head 8 miles up Hillary’s stinking hole and he probably emailed Comey to tell him to let her go scot free for her sins and crimes because he is nothing but another politician and certainly not a man of religion anything. He can go to hell now, he will later anyway, and let’s all squat in Saint Peters square and start putting up houses and a casino as well - why not? - since he doesn’t believe in walls let him live without his own walls, fences and “Swiss guards”, let’s just take all the art and statues in the Vatucant for oue own to decorate our houses too. And he needs to get the hell out of our national elections, do not come here at all.

The College of Cardinals elected a pro-choice Liberation Theologian for Pope. Congrats.
