Pope Francis: We Cannot Hide from Migrants ‘Behind Walls and Barbed Wires’(popeadopalis)

Pope Francis railed against the “dehumanization” of migrants Monday, calling for a shared responsibility among European nations in welcoming migrants.

In the face of increasing movements of migration, “we cannot be indifferent or hide behind walls and barbed wires under the pretext of defending security or a style of life,” the pope told members of the Diplomatic Corps accredited to the Holy See in Monday’s annual address.

“I thank all those individuals and governments working to ensure that migrants are welcomed and protected,” the pontiff stated, “and to support their human promotion and integration in the countries that have received them.”

“I am aware of the difficulties that some states encounter in the face of a large influx of people,” he said. “No one can be asked to do what is impossible for them, yet there is a clear difference between accepting, albeit in a limited way, and rejecting completely.”

As he has done on other occasions, Francis insisted that everyone is responsible for welcoming migrants and no country should wash its hands from this situation.

Sounds like frank needs to head back to Argentina and continue working to raise the 4th reich. So, who dropped the wrong cap/pellet in the fire so white smoke was seen? NOT funny. I remember once upon a time when the pope was an honorable person.

We have immigration laws on our books. Tell the Vatican to mind its own business.

“We have immigration laws on our books” That’s not working out to well these days. :-}

If countries are consistently producing migrants, can we not just take over those countries and rule them as we see fit?

“we cannot be indifferent or hide behind walls and barbed wires under the pretext of defending security or a style of life,” the pope told members.

What about the wall around Vatican city?

Swiss guards?

Nevermind.

Either welcome all the worlds immigrants into the Vatican or recognize that others have the same right to limit immigration that you do, Mr Pope sir.
