POPE ON TRUMP: ANYONE WHO WANTS BORDER WALLS ISN'T CHRISTIAN
BY NICOLE WINFIELD
ABOARD THE PAPAL PLANE (AP) -- Pope Francis said Thursday that Donald Trump is "not Christian" if he intends to build a wall along the U.S.-Mexican border. Trump immediately fired back, saying it is disgraceful for a religious leader to question a person's faith.
Trump, a leading U.S. Republican presidential candidate, has promised to build a wall along the Mexican border from Texas to California and expel 11 million people who are in the country illegally if elected president. The Pope's comments en route home from Mexico came hours after he prayed at the Mexico-U.S. border for people who died trying to reach the United States.
"A person who thinks only about building walls, wherever they may be, and not building bridges, is not Christian," Francis said. "This is not in the Gospel."

Thanks. I’ve read thru this 2x, but it all seems like a bowl of muddy water.

I was looking for the Cliff Notes on it. lol.
With Obama election, this leftist Pope election, border flooding everywhere by illegals, there has to be something big going on.
What a poopey popey
So the Pope is taking down the border wall around Vatican City?
It was God who sent Nehemiah to rebuild the walls around Jerusalem...
It leaves absolutely no room for any other opinion but his own. Just like leftists always do.
Well, I doubt the Pope is Christian as well.
Besides, we don’t answer to Rome.
Fox (John Scott/Chris Wallace) is claiming that Trump has gone to war with the pope. I thought Trump’s response was very respectful and appropriate. In the same breath, Fox sites the NBC/WSJ poll we’re all hearing about. Then FOX sites their poll of people who will not support Trump.
The war against the MSM continues.
And John Scott is a tool.
What the Pope is advocating is nothing less than theft which breaks a commandment. Encouraging people to break commandments separates people from God. No vicar of Christ should ever desire this. Francis has been deceived and is a naive fool. I say this as a devout and heartbroken Catholic, who will never leave the church because of the eucharist.
There are many things I don’t like about Trump, but he’s right about the wall, and Francis should concern himself with Jesus not US politics.
Pope jumping the shark, much he is.
I am. He is a dolt.
Hey Frank, I agree with you.
To accomplish your statement, how bout we put up a wall to prevent those nasty evil corporations that steal the souls of men from using and abusing cheap labor from poor countries.
I feel the same about both.
Islam goal is to destroy the Vatican. Keep that wal and get ours up and high.
I concur.
Little Donny T. takes on the Pope.
Last time a wannabee dictator went after the Pope, it didn't work out so goof for him.
Von Hildebrand, one of the greatest Catholic theologians of the 20th Century, believed that after Pius Xâs condemnation of the heresy of Modernism, its proponents merely went underground. He would say that they then took a much more subtle and practical approach.
In the second part of the 20th century the greatest threat to the Church was the massive Communist infiltration, especially in Latin America.
In an interview to Alice Von Hildebrand she stated: âIt is a matter of public record, for instance, that Bella Dodd, the ex-Communist who reconverted to the Church, openly spoke of the Communist Partyâs deliberate infiltration of agents into the seminaries. She told my husband and me that when she was an active party member, she had dealt with no fewer than four cardinals within the Vatican âwho were working for us.â
We witnessed how those seeds flourished in the 1960 and 70âs among many of the religious orders and diocesan clergy, inciting armed revolution all around Latin America with the support of the Cuban Stalinist regime under the false pretense of liberating the oppressed and exploited masses.
Francis is the first and only Pope that has been against the Magisterium of the Church on the constant condemnation of communism and opened the doors of the Vatican to the theologians who corrupted the Gospels with the doctrine of Marx. Most importantly, the Pope has backed his words with actions. During his visit to Brazil in 2013, the Pope held meetings with Liberation Theologians on preparing a new doctrine for the church.
The Marxist liberation theology was the spearhead of the Communist infiltration of the Church and when it was unmasked by John Paul II and Benedict XVI they entered in hibernation until Pope Francis was elected and they resurged with strong impetus reaching the zenith of the Marxist infiltration under his papacy.
Pope Francis is more radical and dangerous than Obama. As soon as he took power he rescued from the trash bin of History the Marxist liberation theology after was proscribed by John Paul II and Benedict XVI. Now Francis is embracing another of the Communists front movements, the hoax of the global warming. Francis called the most radical of the Marxist liberation leaders, Leonardo Boff, who was silenced by H.H. Pope John Paul II, as one of his adviser for his encyclical that tries to give moral support to the global warming fraud, but instead Francis destroys his credibility and demeans the respect for the Catholic Church.
âSocialist societies are very ethical, clean, physically and morally. If it werenât for his materialist doctrine it could be argued that they carried out the ethical teaching of the social doctrine of the Church.â Leonardo Boff on his return from a trip to Moscow, cfr.ABC, 16-VII-87, p.45
Father Gustavo Gutierrez, father of the liberation theology embraced by Francis, explained: âWhat we mean here regarding liberation theology is the involvement of the revolutionary political processâ. (10) Gutiérrez also explains the sense of this involvement: âOnly by going beyond a society divided into classes. (â¦) Only eliminating private property of the wealth created by human work, will we be able to lay down the bases for a more just society. It is for this that the efforts to project a new society in Latin America are tending more and more towards socialismâ.
âThe national planning of the Society of Jesus in the United States should, following the example of China, become an international planning. Towards the convergence of problems in all areas of the world around a single theme: the construction in different times and forms of a world Communist society.â Strategic document of a group of Dutch Jesuits - in collaboration with other Jesuit revolutionariesâpublished for internal debate in the official journal of the society of Jesus in the United States, National Jesuit News, April 1972.
Francis rescued Marxist liberation theology from the trash bin of history, now he wants to exhume Maoâs Cultural Revolution.
In Pope Francisâ call for a bold cultural revolutionâ to confront climate change, he is using classic Marxist terms (Maoâs Cultural Revolution and Marxist liberation theology) to promote a political agenda aimed toward the advance of âcollectivism, redistribution of wealth, and global government.âPOPE FRANCIS âBOLD CULTURAL REVOLUTIONâ
The problem is that Francis only listen to those who share his political socialist agenda.
Can the faithful Catholic reject Pope Francisâ political Encyclical on global warming when Francis is the first and only Pope that is preaching against the Magisterium of the Church on the constant condemnation of communism and opened the doors of the Vatican to the theologians who corrupted the Gospels with the doctrine of Marx? Most importantly,
Apparently, the pope doesn’t know the Bible very well. Nehemiah was told by God to build walls in Jerusalem. The Book of Revelation tells us that the New Jerusalem will have walls around it with 3 doors on each of it’s four sides. a Christian would know these things.
Francis tear down those walls!
The pope must be Beelzebub.
