....Mr Trump's views on immigration and his intention to build a wall along the US border with Mexico, Francis said a man with such views was "not Christian".

So walls are un-Chisitian, eh Frankie?

Headline is click-bait. The article itself says nothing about Pope Francis saying he will "stand up to Donald Trump on immigration and climate change."

Virtually all other news organizations took the very same copy and headlined it that the Pope will "NOT" "stand up to" Trump.

My advise to people about issues like these is to walk the talk. Teach by example. In this case, smash down the Vatican walls and embrace all comers, feed and house them and their offspring (and their offspring) as your own children. Simultaneously, refrain from the products of modern, carbon-belching food, construction and transportation technology. It would be inspiring. And deadly.

Well he does pushy homosexuality. Malachi Martin said there was rampant homosexuality among the Vatican ranks and priesthood.

Not surprised at all!

Do Popes go to Hell? If so, Trump should tell him to go there.

It sounds like Fritz should be invited to stay as far from the White House as world geography permits. I'm a practicing Catholic who has been proud of my Popes, those in my 66 year life, including John XXIII and, especially, Pius XII (after I spent some time reading about his Papacy).

IF...and that is always a BIG if these days...if Fritz' pronouncements aren't FAKE NEWS of the first order...then Fritz exists to be an embarrassment of the Borgia degree.

This Catholic stopped listening to Jorge a long time ago. It is passed time for this egotistical socialist to shut his pie hole.

Well, Trump believes in the Cristian God. Pope Francis not so much.

So I'm guessing God will be rooting for Trump in any confrontation between Trump and Francis.
