Pope Francis marked UN World Food Day on Monday with a call for world governments to act together to fight the hunger, conflicts and climate change driving mass migration from the developing to the industrialized world.
In a speech to the global body’s Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) in Rome, Francis said love rather than pity should be placed at the heart of international development efforts, and threw his weight behind efforts in the UN to negotiate a global accord on managed, safe migration.
“Is it too much to ask to think of inserting the concept of love into the language of international cooperation,” Francis said in a speech that was greeted with a standing ovation. “We cannot limit ourselves to pity, because pity stops with emergency aid while love inspires justice and is essential to create a just social order,” Francis said.
Francis cited the Paris climate change accord as an example of what could be achieved if governments worked together, while bemoaning that some were now “distancing themselves from it” — an apparent swipe at US President Donald Trump. …

Pope Francis, tear down your Vatican walls!
Let all of the migrants into Vatican City! Show the love!
Dear Pope...Why not do something real....like hitting against those who would condone abortion and homosexuality.

Tough Love - Get your F’n ass back from where you came, Illegal!
We are making it safe for them to go home where they want to be.
“Dear Pope...Why not do something real....like hitting against those who would condone abortion and homosexuality.”
Better still, “Dear Pope, ESAD!” Catholics the world over should demand that this worthless turd be removed as their church’s “leader.” Right now, the Catholic Church is rudderless!
The popes a commie, eff him.
The migrants are tackling the kufir with rape.
Hillary and Francis both need to take a vow of silence. We are tired of hearing their vapid opinions every day.
The very least Francis could be doing is raising theological questions on the assertions made in the Islamic codex (which is their code of observance and behavior) known as Sharia, Beginning with this question

Instead of equating their bizzare concepts of what a Monotheistic Creator is and requires with what Judeo/Christian beliefs are. While they in the belief that they are following God’s command are ruthlessly murdering and torturing non believers and destroying their edifices.
Jebbie’s butt boy
Mr Francis . . TEAR DOWN THAT WALL
Can you feel the love?!
I would love to end this mass migration scam.
Give them “smiley face” T-shirts to wear while they are being shipped back to their countries of origin.
Most world leaders still don’t recognize an invading force when it lands on their shore. At least Poland does.
The most loving response is to send the migrants home so they can use their talents to build up their own countries.
