Pope Francis has cited the Gospel while calling for migrants to be "welcomed, encouraged and integrated" as Europe and the United States struggle to cater to unprecedented levels of global mass migration.
The pontiff, a steadfast advocate for asylum seekers, refugees and economic migrants, said that many migrants are faced with the "drama of forced migration" and make treacherous journeys by sea in search of better lives which can sometimes lead to tragedy.
"The migrant must be welcomed, accompanied, encouraged and integrated. This generosity, this industriousness is in harmony with the Gospel, which invites us to do good to everyone, and in particular the last, the poorest, the most abandoned, the sick, people in danger."

Thank you very much and God bless you.
<< “the Gospel, which invites us to do good to everyone” >>
“Everyone” obviously doesn’t include the citizens of the U.S. and Europe who suffer in innumerable ways from the third world invasion.

I don’t see any illegal immigrants crowding out the tourists in the Vatican; aren’t they welcome to your enclave, your Holiness? Or is it your Hypocritess?

Sounds like he is asking for 20-30 plane loads of Illegal Aliens to be sent to Vatican City...

He is referring to the Vatican no? Good on all those religious clergy to invite the dregs of 3rd world countries to live with them.

Weaponized virtue.
He who loves the foreigner hates his fellow citizen.

The current Pope is a New World Order, globalist commie.

Pope Frankie is full of it.
Marxism and globalism that is.
As I read the Bible, God’s plan was to have his people divided into many “nations”.
This is obviously against “one worldism” which has always been Satan’s plan.
Hence the destruction of the Tower of Babel was a Divine action against “one worldism.”

In the Old Testament, even immigrants were subject to the Law of Moses. And the bible doesn’t condone invasions.

First off, they are not immigrants, they are illegal invaders. Secondly, if the Commie Pope wants them so bad, send them to the Vatican City.
