Pope Francis has called on every European parish and religious community to take in one refugee family each in a gesture of solidarity he said would start in the tiny Vatican state where he lives.

Pope Francis said: “I appeal to the parishes, the religious communities, the monasteries and sanctuaries of all Europe to … take in one family of refugees,” he said after his customary Sunday address in the Vatican.

“Every parish, every religious community, every monastery, every sanctuary of Europe, take in one family,” the pope said, to applause from the crowd at St. Peter’s Square. …

Mass suicide is being committed in Europe, led by the very Church that for centuries kept the muslim hordes from overunning Europe and enslaving it. Madness reigns in the world, while the barbarians move throughout the West planting their seeds for the destruction of civilization. I never thought I’d never live to see this, certainly not in my lifetime. There’s going to be hell to pay and a lot of needless deaths when this is allover. Tragedy in the making.

Catholics and muslims under the same roof?

I’m gonna bet the Catholics find themselves in the garage the 1st night and the 2nd night the muslims will demand the Catholics leave.

You'll notice he is NOT calling on Muslim countries and mosques and crapistan countries to take in these people.

The Vatican has plenty of money and land all over the world. That’s a good start... the Pope can put his money where his mouth is... Show us the Way...

Pope Francis should take the refugees in - AND support them until the Catholic Church is broke....

Not for the faint of heart:

Amazing how ISIS said just a couple months ago that they were going to infiltrate and conquer Europe, now this happens and few can connect the dots.

And HOW did the Caliphate initially expand into Italy? OBAMA BOMBED LIBYA CAUSING A MASS EXODUS AND VOILA! And we all wondered why Bama was so hot and heavy to bomb Libya (without Congress' consent).

Church attendance is way down in Europe and some churches have closed. I think this plea by the Pope is not going to go far.

I wish somebody had a picture of Pope Benedict XVI doing a face-palm, and saying: “Not this scheisse again.”

The Vatican’s wealth is one of the great treasures of Western civilization. Indeed, it’s one of the many ways the Church preserved Western civilization during the darkest times, the horror of which was enhanced by Muslim conquest and heroically resisted by the Church over centuries. Now, this repulsive communist Quisling and traitor to the faith, like Obola, his “American” soul brother, is trying to destroy it all.

Agreed.

And they can start by sending these characters back where they came from and let families put them up in homes back there.

There are PLENTY of homes that are NOT in either Europe or the United States.

I hope I won’t offend any Catholics if I observe that this Pope is a bit of a Nut Job.

The Vatican should be able to open up that great big courtyard to a tent city. Those great big halls there should be able to handle thousands.

Go for it your holiness...

We’ll wait and see how that works out for you.

And the Pope will be the first to have his head chopped off when the Muslims take control.

I believe most of these people are fleeing Islam and want to be converted.

Read the book by Joseph Fadelle -- The Price to Pay

You'll get the idea of what they go through to get out of their Muslim countries.

The pope didn’t add “and convert them to Christianity” like he should have.

These muslims need to be converted or die. Those are the only tow choices that should be offered.

More like

“Pope Francis has called on every European parish and religious community to take in one Jihadi fighter cell of at least 4 military-age males each in a gesture of solidarity...”
