Old Papal Sourpuss – aka Pope Francis – strikes again. This time he fired off comments while traveling in the papal plane from Asia to Rome. Air travel, apparently, inspires this pontiff to unleash confusing and ambiguous statements that have many Catholics and others scratching their heads.
At 10,000 feet he weighed in on Americans’ upcoming choice between Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump. He categorized both candidates as “against life” and urged Catholic voters to choose the “lesser of two evils.”
“One must choose the lesser of two evils. Who is the lesser of two evils? That lady or that gentleman? I don’t know,” Francis told reporters.
“To send migrants away, to leave them wherever you want, to leave them… it’s something terrible, there is evil there,” he elaborated. “To send away a child from the womb of the mother is an assassination, because there is life. We must speak about these things clearly.”
Francis, a globalist who equates open borders with the outstretched welcoming arms of Christ as depicted in the Christ the Redeemer statue in Rio de Janeiro, believes there should be no limit to the numbers of migrants entering a country even if an overload threatens to destroy it.
The pro-open borders pope criticized President Trump in 2016 when the latter promised to build a wall at the southwestern border: “A person who thinks only about building walls, wherever they may be, and not building bridges, is not Christian. This is not the gospel.”
In the past, Francis has equated abortion with murder. And yet in his evaluation of Trump and Harris, he puts murder on an equal footing with common sense border control policies and the deportation of illegal aliens.

There is one high wall around Vatican City. I don't know what this Pope is.... he sure ain't Catholic. Nor even Christian.
Check the basement of the Vatican for missing kids...
The New Jerusalem is surrounded by walls according to John.
God commanded Nehemiah to build walls.
Jesus talks about building towers for defense.
Not a single time do they bring up bridges.
Guess they are not as smart or holy as the Bishop of Rome.
“Is the Pope Catholic” has ceased to be a rhetorical question.
And her gates shall always be open by day and there shall be no night.
And not a single bridge.
Agreed.
Strange thing is that the “kings of the earth” who had been vilified (rigthly!) through all the preceding chapters will come streaming through those never closed gates.
And from where?
Well, there are only two entities remaining: The New Jerusalem and the lake of fire.
I am NOT a “Universalist” nor do I believe in Roman “Purgatory” but there is evidently some process of purification which allows even the scum of the earth aka “kings of the earth” to enter where no unclean thing shall enter.
As one Protestant hymn puts it “There’s a wideness in God’s Mercy...”
You may be right. Remember, Salvation belongs to the Christ to do with as He pleases. Recall the parable of the person who hired workers for his field at different times during the day and at the end he payed them all the same. The gift of forgiveness and eternal life is not to be confused with the rewards given (and taken) at the end.
Pope Bozo is a scumbag.
The current pope is one piece of work.
I looked at that from 9 years ago too
