"...cautioned somberly against those who "raise walls, build barriers and label people."

There are pretty high walls around the Vatican, Francis.

"Islamic terrorists" kill people and we are no suppose to label them?...where have I heard that before, Francis?

Labelling people, like calling them a "racists", where have I heard that before, Francis?

Seems like this pope spends a lot of time watching CNN or MSNBC, or maybe takes his que from the DNC talking points?

This pope is not a representative of the true catholic doctrine. He is stacking his cardinals in his own image.

our pitiful hearts that tend to judge

Unless you are speaking of your own heart only, are you not judging? Oh, wait. I'm being legalistic. All that systematic logic and syllogism stuff. I have to replace logic and reason with "discernment".

TRANSLATION:

Let the Muslims invade the West. Lie down and surrender.

Do what George Soros tells you, and you’ll be okay.

Your Holiness, respectfully, please bear in mind that:

“the Judeo-Christian West” is “in the very beginning stages of a very brutal and bloody conflict … an outright war against jihadist Islamic fascism”—an enemy that, unless harsher measures are taken, “will completely eradicate everything that we’ve been bequeathed over the last 2,000, 2,500 years.”

Please be a leader in defending civilization, and not a cheerleader for those attacking it.

This “pope” is definitely past his “use-by” date.

The cardinals need to boot him and replace him.

I especially like what Putin said: “A society that can’t defend its children has no tomorrow”.

With all due respect, well, at least some minimal amount, where has he been for the past decade or more as liberals have made a habit of divisiveness and envy building.

I guess one could used ‘polarization’ as a euphemism for leading a group of Christians in orange jumpsuits to a beach and slicing their heads off with large knives, but oddly enough Bergoglio fails to note that sort of behavior doesn’t occur in the other direction.

Here we are in dire need of an Urban II and we’re stuck with a Francis I.
