Pope Francis: 'Building Walls Means Condemning Yourself to Death'

The leader of the Roman Catholic Church met with a group of Jesuits from Mozambique, Portugal, and Zimbabwe in early September to discuss political and religious issues. The conversation occurred on September 5, but a transcript of the discussion was released on Thursday. During the talk, Pope Francis warned of xenophobia and populism.

"Xenophobia and aporophobia today are part of a populist mentality that leaves no sovereignty to the people. Xenophobia destroys the unity of a people, even that of the people of God," the pope said.

I wouldn’t be heart broken seeing smoke signals rise from the Vatican sooner than later.

Not until the Vatican archives are backed-up off-site!

We are all condemned to death anyway.

It is appointed unto man wants to die, then the judgment.

Years ago I was in an Italian restaurant in New York. The television was on because Pope Saint John Paul II was visiting World Youth Day in Denver. President Clinton showed up. Both Clinton and the Saint were in the same shot. I was eating lunch with a friend. I pointed to the television and said, “Hey, Bert, look! The Pope and the Dope!” Bert and I were ejected from the restaurant.

Now I only need to see a picture of Bergoglio to say, “Hey, Bert, look! The Pope and the Dope!” because the Pope is a Dope.

Actually throughout history, not building walls condemned you and your family and community to death. Francis needs to put the bong down.
