” Of course, the lamestream media will twist his statements to suit their leftist diversity agenda.”

Well, of course they will. All part of the narrative. The are two things they won’t ever mention.

First, here is a link to his actual address:

http://en.radiovaticana.va/news/2013/09/24/popes_message_for_word_day_of_migrants_and_refugees_is_released/en1-731252

The first extract that won’t ever be mentioned:

*********************

Pope Benedict XVI sketched the parameters of such policies, stating that they “should set out from close collaboration between the migrants’ countries of origin and their countries of destination; they should be accompanied by adequate international norms able to coordinate different legislative systems with a view to safeguarding the needs and rights of individual migrants and their families, and at the same time, those of the host countries” (Caritas in Veritate, 62).

****************

Note the last little bit: “...with a view to safeguarding the needs and rights...of the host countries.”

****************

The second quote:

It must also be emphasized that such cooperation begins with the efforts of each country to create better economic and social conditions at home, so that emigration will not be the only option left for those who seek peace, justice, security and full respect of their human dignity. The creation of opportunities for employment in the local economies will also avoid the separation of families and ensure that individuals and groups enjoy conditions of stability and serenity.

***************

Note the bit there about fixing the problems in the home countries, thus eliminating the perceived need to emigrate for financial reasons.

***************

I wonder why they don’t mention those little items? /sarc

That's the critical part of the Pope's address which will be oh-so-eagerly dismissed by the lamestreamers in the liberal media complex. Moreover. I think when the Pontiff used the phrase, "pawns on chessboard of humanity", he was referring to the leftists who use migrants to achieve their aims of destroying the host countries.

I'm not Catholic but I have great respect for Pope Francis. I believe he is articulating God's Eternal Word and is helping to advance Conservatism. After all, Christianity and Conservatism are allies in the battle against evil.
