Pope Red Francis: Western World Has “Moral Responsibility” to Let in More Migrants

Red Francis called on Western nations to open their doors to the flood of economic migrants from corrupt, poor regimes.

This pope appears to put no thought into his touchy-feely far left positions. Voice of Europe reported:

“It is the “moral responsibility” of the outside world to accept even more migrants,” Pope Francis explained in a speech on Thursday.

This year it is 70 years since the globalist organisation that is the UN adopted the “Universal Declaration of Human Rights”.

It was for that reason that Pope Francis urged the outside world to open its doors to even more migrants.

He referred to the declaration’s recognition that all human beings have “universal and indivisible rights”, which are the basis for “justice, freedom and peace in the world”.

According to the Pope, it is everyone’s responsibility to deal with the consequences of war, poverty, inequality and mass migration.

“No solution to the global issue of mass migration should ignore our moral responsibility for the common good, to welcome, protect, promote and integrate those who knock on our doors to find a safe future,” he continued.

At the same time, the morals among his close advisors aren’t exactly impressive. This past week, three cardinals have left the Pope’s most important advisory body, the Council of Cardinals.

The West has no moral obligation to commit suicide. Where is the church in condemning the political corruption that the Pope mentions, so much of it in Catholic Latin American countries?

At this point, until the Church comes clean about why Benedict actually stepped down, I can’t accept anything from the Vatican or their global hierarchy as truth.

Any one honest poor person who applies for entry to the US has a case.
OTOH anyone who demands that the US admit and grant voting rights to ten times as many people as the current US population does not wish us well.
We can wish them all well without being willing to allow them to cause us to become like them - which would do little good to any well-intended person.

“What Did Thomas Aquinas Say About Citizenship & Immigration?”

“During most of the history of the West, citizenship was understood to be a jealously guarded privilege and honor, not a universal entitlement entailing access to a plethora of welfare benefits. In the Aristotelian scheme, the most legitimate republican form of government is a polity, yet even in said polity, citizenship would be restricted to able-bodied men who bear arms; to have a vote, one would have to be one of those who stands in harm’s way to protect the community. Even in more recent times, with the ascendance of classical liberalism, it was taken for granted that the franchise would be restricted according to a variety of criteria, such as property ownership. While I may not be numbered among the classical liberals, I can see their point here: It is difficult to imagine how we might prevent a large-scale egalitarian democracy from degenerating into a “race to the bottom,” whereby a demagogic system confiscates middle-class wealth to fund bread and circuses.”

Those who find this last claim objectionable are advised to look to Summa Theologica I – II, Q. 105, Art. 3, wherein St. Thomas Aquinas discusses citizenship by way of ancient Israel. Under the Law, says Aquinas, whenever foreigners wished to be admitted into complete fellowship with the Israelites, “a certain order was observed:”
The reason for this was that if foreigners were allowed to meddle with the affairs of a nation as soon as they settled down in its midst, many dangers might occur, since the foreigners not yet having the common good firmly at heart might attempt something hurtful to the people.’

All of the liberals who pushed independence/self-determination for colonized peoples should admit their errors and concede that independence failed; the non-whites who revolted/rebelled against white rule are now storming the gates to have whites “administer” them again.

The Pope should simply state publicly that colonization should be re-instituted; then whites can deal with these hordes in their own homelands. Now we have the worst of both worlds; we provide everything for them “over there”, and we provide everything for them here.
