Opening hearts, Christian thing to do etc.

Suicide has never been a Christian thing to do.

Then I await the Vatican to open their doors wide open and house the butchers inside their majestic castle!

...

The Pope says from behind his huge wall designed to keep them out of his nation.

Hey Pope. “Open the doors” to the Vatican first and show the world how great these refugees really are!

This big talker hides behind a 40ft wall and invites a SINGLE hand-picked refugee family for a photo op...

...when I visited the Vatican, there were guards everywhere...

And they carry automatic weapons. Looked like Uzis to me.

Believe it or not, there are FReepers who claim the Vatican is open and unguarded except for the ceremonial Swiss Guard.

You first Papi. Take in a few hundred or so into the Vatican and then maybe I’ll listen to you.

He was referring to Saudi Arabia and the Gulf States, right?

A family friend of ours is a Pastor whose daughter is working in Jordan. She is working with refugees there, the kind who genuinely want to get their lives back in order and return to their homelands someday; not the type whose mission is to invade and conquer the west.

He said the best thing people can do is to contribute to Christian missions working in Jordan. The government there, although Muslim, is Christian friendly and welcomes the type of workers such as the Pastor's daughter.

Occasionally, they do recommend families to emigrate if they have no close living relatives remaining or other special circumstances which would justify them leaving.

But their main emphasis is to help them close to home.

And of course, as we've seen, the girls and women in these migrant-accepting countries need to open something besides their hearts and doors...

But hey, that's a small price to pay for multiculturalism, eh Pope? Sort of like all the molested little boys were a small price to pay to keep the priests happy?

Yeah, the Vatican is a country all by itself with very high walls. Why doesn't he take in some to those poor refugees that he wants to dump on everyone else.

Suicide! Europe and USA and now Canada too — and after all these centuries of fighting off the invading Muslims, now the West just folds like deck chairs on the Titanic. Unbelievable! We’re sold out by our ruling elites. and a naive? Pope who really really really can’t be that ignorant of history or what the Muslims do to Christians they conquer

Sure Ponitff.

You first.

Open the gates of the Vatican and take in 100,000 of these Islamic refugees and house, feed, and accommodate them there.

Show us by example.

Ask them to renounce Islam to qualify for admission, first.

The Pope should open up his coffers to the migrants... sell off Church lands and holdings and give it all away to the migrants.

In a year they’ll all still be poor but the Church will be broke... THEN the Pope can lecture to the rest of us on why that path had value.

To the marxist idiot in a stupid hat currently residing in the Vatican: Shut up. When you throw the doors to your own gilded residence open and allow criminals, rapists, and homicidal maniacs to sleep on your nice fluffy bed, then you can tell the rest of us how to address the migrant issue. Even then, any person able to think critically will still think you are an idiot.
