In a strongly worded address before the United Nations Wednesday, a Vatican spokesman denounced President Trumps threats against North Korea as deplorable.
Speaking in New York at the 10th Conference for the entry into force of the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty, Archbishop Paul R. Gallagher, the Vaticans Secretary for Relations with States, noted that the rising tensions over North Koreas growing nuclear program are of special urgency, while sharply criticizing President Trumps handling of the situation.
The international community must respond by seeking to revive negotiations, Gallagher said. The threat or use of military force have no place in countering proliferation, and the threat or use of nuclear weapons in countering nuclear proliferation are deplorable.
The Archbishop went on to say that building up a strong militaryone or Mr. Trumps stated prioritiesis counterproductive and hearkens back to a Cold War mentality.
We must put behind us the nuclear threats, fear, military superiority, ideology, and unilateralism that drive proliferation and modernization efforts and are so reminiscent of the logic of the Cold War, Gallagher said, in evident reference to the American President.

But may God in His mercy set the people of North Korea free to know and serve the Lord Jesus who died for them, without any dying that would come to know Him, and without sending leanness into their soul as their bodies gain weight. Amen and amen.

Pope Zero the Zero.
I cannot imagine the horror of the North Koreans living in that Hell especially those of faith. It's disheartening that the Pope does not stand for them nor understand the situation.

The ImPopester can blow it out his cassock.
ImPopester? He's the real thing, duly detected, See-lected, and Eeelected. Those entrusted with competence for the task(s) were not all that competent this last time around. Somebody should sue?
But I will say this;
Nobody can call him "bi-polar". This Francis The Talking Francis has two South ends.
Don't stand too close nearby to either.

The Vatican should stick with lost souls and championing the helpless instead of interfering in the affairs of free, sovereign nations.

Sounds like much of the Vatican and its leaders have brought back the old “Castrati” practice of making themselves into political eunuchs.
And I thought that my former rabbi was full of leftist crap!

Which was similar to its parent. And the English Civil War didn’t end until 1651. There were also the Huguenots and others.
