Nope, staying right here.
Agree.
The Vatican, like their fellow hard-left allies in the media is lying to the world. The lie they tell is one of ommission. The publicize a carefully selected, camera-ready family with infant children, as a way of pressuring Western governments to admit more migrants from the middle east and Africa - while the fact is that the migrant wave is overwhelmingly (about 74 percent) made up of aggressive young Muslim men.
If this awful Pope were less dishonest he would announce that the Vatican would house migrants selected at random by lottery (he's asking Western governments to accept whatever walks in, so he shouldn't get to pick and choose).
Also since the communist Pope is asking western countries to admit refugees in numbers that will seriously upset and harm the quality of life in their towns and cities, the Vatican needs to do the same. So not one or two families, but at least 1,000 mulsim migrants in Vatican City. 740 men, 260 women and children - all selected at random.
First of all, I was not the one asking that they shed their oh-so-appropriate head coverings in a single second, ok?
So get your fellow freepers straight.
You then went on to insult Americans for not being as oh-so-enlightened as yourself. Which is why I brought up the usual anti-American trope that we don’t have passports. Surely, you’ve read about that?
Don’t tell me about immigrants. I study the labor movement and the anarchist movement in America in the early 20th century so I know a lot about assimilation and non-assimiliation. In fact, my study of the Sacco & Vanzetti case has illuminated my knowledge of single, uneducated immigrant men and the dangers they pose to civilized society. I have studied the Italian/Jewish-American anarchist movement for 40 years. It is no different than jihadism. The only decent thing Mussolini ever did was to wipe them out. But there’s no one in Europe to take on this new fight.
Ann Archy is one of the staunchest Catholics that we have on Free Republic. That she is not taken in by the Pope and his sentimental gestures speaks well for her.
P.S.: I live near a neighborhood of a small group of Syrian Catholics. The most anti-Semitic bunch I’ve ever run across. People, educate yourself as to who these people are.
It’s truly unfortunate that your thread has been hijacked by a few who are pushing their own “hate all Middle Easterners” ideology.
Thank you. I’m not surprised that some sentimental person looking at this thought of an icon. I’m not as easily fooled.
BTW, I thought this was supposed to be a “Catholic Caucus” thread. What happened?
I’m a Catholic. An old school Catholic, not some Vatican 2 sentimental Catholic.
Well, for a Catholic, you certainly have some...interesting...prejudices
Seriously, he needs to take into the VATICAN THOUSANDS of Muslim "refugees". He needs to put his money (OUR MONEY) where his mouth is!
I am STILL waiting for an apology from you.
Prejudices? You mean towards some Syrian Christians who’ve absorbed the Jew hatred of their overseers? Or did I miss something. Please tell me - after all, you’re the admitted expert on foreign affairs as to us xenophobes.
I wonder how they would handle the situation. Forced to flee their homeland, leave behind belongings, home, family, friends, job, car ... and then find that many countries will not accept them because they are CHRISTIAN.
Cobol......you really need to examine your libertarian views....or are you GREG GUTFELD??
A Catholic family ?!
The libs will be having a cow over that.
You answered your own question in the first sentence in your post #24. I already told you that.
Um...how do you tell the Christians from the jihadis, tell me that? Do authorities demand they recite the Apostles’ Creed? And do you know anything about Jew hatred among Christian middle-easterners?
Ann, are you drunk? I was talking about history. You really shouldn’t post without thinking.
You have no answers. You’re a typical sentimentalist.
Of course, Ann, the Vatican will never take in single muslim men. They’re no fools; but Merkel is.
There are none so blind as she who will not see. Enjoy your small world.
Excellent post!
