Doing just that would go a long way in showing just how committed the church would be in helping those migrants.Talk is cheap. Real solidarity would be giving them Vatican citizenship.
How about we listen to the pope and take his message to heart instead of challenging it?Talk is cheap. Real solidarity would be giving them Vatican citizenship.
He can set the example.How about we listen to the pope and take his message to heart instead of challenging it?
He has. Own you’re hatred. Tonight love and compassion won.He can set the example.
Are you implying their commitment is inauthentic?Doing just that would go a long way in showing just how committed the church would be in helping those migrants.
I’m sure the folks in Germany, Sweden, and England are feeling “love and compassion” as the poorly-planned entry of large swaths of migrants whose cultures are incompatible with the West are enriching their societies so much.He has. Own you’re hatred. Tonight love and compassion won.
Poor Muslim migrants, good thing he Pope is there to defend their cause.
LOVE WINS! Rigids take note.
“…The Supreme Pontiff… as Head of the Catholic Church, which, faithful to its divine doctrines and its most glorious traditions, considers all men as brothers and teaches them to love one another, he never ceases to indicate among individuals, as well as among peoples, the observance of the principles of the natural law, and to condemn everything that violates them. This law must be observed and respected…because it would not be conformable to justice or to religion itself to derogate from it solely on account of divergence of religious confessions. The Supreme Pontiff at this moment feels in his fatherly heart…the necessity of all men remembering that they are brothers and that their salvation lies in return to the law of love which is the law of the gospel…”
?- Pope Benedict XV, February 9th 1917 (Civilta Cattolica)
He has set an example many times of solidarity of those who are poor and needy. All one need do is read his biography.He can set the example.
Pope Francis: “It’s hypocrisy to call yourself a Christian and chase away a refugee or someone seeking help, someone who is hungry or thirsty, toss out someone who is in need of my help. If I say I am Christian, but do these things, I’m a hypocrite.”Poor Muslim migrants, good thing he Pope is there to defend their cause.
LOVE WINS! Rigids take note.
I am saying its easy to demand that western countries take millions, millions, and more millions all the while keeping your doors closed.Are you implying their commitment is inauthentic?
YesPosting in correct thread:
The anti-Catholic sentiment on the board has become astounding. There is no other word for the type of lazy, cheap remarks I am reading. The idea that the Catholic Church is so rich and should sell everything to help those in need is classic Protestant propaganda used to undermine the teaching authority of the Church, in spite of the fact that the Catholic Church is the largest charity in the world, and in this case, despite the fact that spends great resources in time and money helping migrants and refugees world wide.
In the end, it is not the Pope anyone needs to worry about. It will be Jesus who will look at you and says, “I was a stranger and you did not welcome me. Depart from me.”
Agree…unfortunately this is what happens when peoples religion becomes politics…this has happened by those on the left…and the right here in the US…it’s pretty clear even by the small number of Catholics here on CAF who disrespect the Vicar of Christ by claiming they don’t have to agree with him…this site is becoming to political and anti Catholic…Posting in correct thread:

Ridiculous. The Vatican is the size of a golf course and has no permanent residents.He can set the example.
