Great. The Vatican can take in all the “migrants” it wants. They can even take in all the illegal invaders here.
He thinks not blindly accepting the Progressive agenda is a sin!
hatred of refugees is a sin.
Refusing them entry is not.
Again - if the pope or national leaders are so gosh darned caring about refugees they can support efforts to overthrow the hostile government and install ones run by the countries these refugees want to come too.
Oh I’m sorry - does that not fit your ideology Pope?
Sorry but I don’t have a problem with what he said.
“New arrivals must ‘know and respect the laws, the culture and the traditions of the countries that take them in,’ he said. Local communities must “open themselves without prejudices to their rich diversity, to understand the hopes and potential of the newly arrived as well as their fears and vulnerabilities.’”
So put another way, we should give legal migrants a chance to assimilate into our culture, and we should try to understand where they are coming from, culturally, but overall we shouldn’t let “fear” rule our judgement of them. Just like we shouldn’t be slaves to emotions (like liberals) but rather we should submit to reality.
He’s said some dumb things IMO, (re “AGW”) but this isn’t one of them. He clearly said migrants should respect the laws of their host countries. Which is exactly what we all say re illegal immigrants.
Nothing personal, but . . . So weary of pope news, joy reid news, rosie news, sean penn news. Since they’re all the same, couldn’t we just see one aggregate, predictable story per day?
I pray that this Pope can come to have a personal relationship with Jesus.
This Catholic broad is so sick of this stinkin’ pope, I could just spit.
No problem. For me it’s common sense.
Francis is so egregiously wrong we should pray for a backlash and resurgence with the next pope similar to Trump and the deep state.
This is an invasion
People had better get their minds around that fact
Who is he to judge ?
I am still confused on this issue. I was brought up to believe that as part of our culture we welcome the tired, the poor, the huddles masses yearning to be free. Now I think there has to be some screening to make sure freedom and not mayhem is an immigrant’s intention. My dad was a WWII refugee (Belgian) as was my grandmother (Russian.) But it is a tough issue and there are no easy answers.
If the commie anti pope is so concerned perhaps he should divest the church of its wealth and give it to the poor
The first Third World pope continues his primary mission of bashing and guilt tripping the affluent nations, and trying to establish a never ending debt owed by the affluent to the poor. I guess he thinks the entire Third World can “migrate” to the affluent nations and that will solve everything.
It is a sin to use a place of power to lie to the people who trust you, for the purpose of manipulating them.
Poop Francis is a sin in and of himself.
I wonder how many people actually believe the BS that constantly spews forth from this Popes mouth.
Pope pimping migrants and their misery going on a highway to hell.
He belongs with pedophile islamists in Karachi.
Yeah, let’s just make up things, call them sins, and cajole a bunch of people to follow his bidding. Sorry, not going to work with me.
JoMa
Fear of immigration to the point of destruction of the greatest Culture ever to rise in history is no sin. Why don’t you let atheists take over the Church, genius...?
