Pope Francis: African Migrants to Europe Only Looking for ‘a Little Well-Being’

ROME — Migrants leaving Africa to travel across the Mediterranean Sea to Europe are only looking for “a little well-being,” Pope Francis said Tuesday.

The pope left Rome Tuesday morning on a flight for the Democratic Republic of Congo during which he exchanged a few words with the more than 70 journalists aboard the papal plane to cover the journey.

“Right now we are crossing the Sahara,” the pontiff told the reporters. “Let us offer a thought, in silence, a prayer for all the people who are looking for a little well-being, a little freedom, have crossed it and have not made it.”

Why not task the countries they are fleeing from to make things better.
Or are only white Europeans capable of creating well being in their countries?

I read that 80% of Sweden’s “refugees” return to their home country for visits as soon as they can. That proves they have no fear of being on their home country and that their asylum claim was bogus. The same thing will happen in the USA. Refugees will fly back and forth to their home countries for visits as soon as they can, with no fear.

The Catholic Church is the largest contributor to the ILLEGAL INVADERS coming across the USA southern border. Period

Yes. This is true for probably 95 percent of the so-called refugees. They are fakes. The last five percent can and should go to another Muslim - controlled country not Europe UK or USA

Looters and carjackers are just looking for a little well-being too.

I totally get them wanting to leave. What the pope fails to understand is that they often bring the reasons for leaving with them. African countries are a shit show for a reason. Unfortunately the ones who can bribe their way out are not going to be stellar examples of humanity.

This is the guy a bunch of other guys vote in to be the Voice of God. Any wonder I don't believe in the Catholic religion? It's all ceremonial rigmarol. Stand up, sit down, stand up, sit down. Eat a crappy wafer. Sing crap. Watch God's appointed Special Envoy walk into the room with the gold and jewels hanging on with all the security in the world.

Oh and what is with Catholic priests playing with little boys and the pervs never get what they deserve?

It's no wonder to me that Christianity broke into so many factions. But then, I don't believe in "organized" religion to begin. Jesus Christ had the most wonderful messages, and what did humanity do with them......WAR and more WAR.

Christ should have been preaching to another civilization on another planet! Hell, AVATAR would have understood his love better. Earth cleary didn't get his message, so we tortured him and hung him up to dry.

No! Our economy that needs more workers is the single biggest factor. Near the top of the list is foreign oppressive governments. We chafe at US idiot bureaucrats. Idiot government is even worse in most of the world.

This man wants Europe destroyed by replacing the Europeans with people from other countries with different values.

What happens, o pope, when there are no more Europeans left who will do the work and maintain a once-great civilization? (IOW, after you take all Whitey’s money and give it to non-Whitey?)
