Pope Francis has chosen as his first papal visit the island of Lampedusa. This is an island belonging to Italy but close to the African coastline. It is where Muslim Africans seeking to enter Europe illegally head for.
In a sermon on Lampedusa, Pope Francis made it clear that he supports the migration of Muslims into Europe "on their voyage toward something better". He said,
I give a thought, too, to the dear Muslim immigrants that are beginning the fast of Ramadan, with best wishes for abundant spiritual fruits. The Church is near to you in the search for a more dignified life for yourselves and for your families. I say to you O scia! [trans.: a friendly greeting in the local dialect].
This doesn't bode well for the Church under Pope Francis. First, it means that the Church is committing itself to a false and unorthodox understanding of solidarity. Second, it means that the Church is orienting itself toward fitting in with secular liberal modernity rather than standing against it.

What a waste of time and energy. Will the Church be at the side of the Islamic terrorist imbeciles as they blow up women, children and old people on public transportation? This new Argentinian pope is about as Catholic as were his predecessors who followed Pope Pius XII.
Is the new pope at their side, leave the rest of the Church out of it please, when they sever the heads of Coptic priests?
Here these hedonists are huddled together waiting their chance to get into a western nation in order to wreak havoc. Any immigration into western nations by muslims should be blocked....by force if necessary.
Different translations?Yes, possibly different translations.
Jesus Christ! What would Jesus have said differently!
Hope you have spiritual improvement
Hope you can find dignity for your impoverished selves and your families
This man is obviously a marxist muslim appeaser from hell.
Satan wants Muslims to take over Europe, so in that sense you may be right.
“At least Benedict tried to spread some truth about Islam before being silenced, as he quoted: “Show me just what Muhammad brought that was new and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached”.
Francis may be the precursor to the End Times, as he seems more interested in enabling the followers of Satan.”
I didn’t know Benedict had said this. Thanks for the post. Benedict didn’t try to sugar coat the founder of this cult.
If you want to change Moslems, you have to explain the difference between Jesus and Mohammed. Jesus preached love, Mohammed preached murder, pedophilia, and evilness. And yes there are good people who are Moslems, but this is in spite of Mohammed, not because of him.
