It is understandable that the Islamic State would want to murder the most prominent exponent of Christianity, but in this the jihadis are being short-sighted. Pope Francis and the Catholic Church are among their best and most useful friends. Ahmed al-Tayeb, the Grand Imam of Cairo’s al-Azhar, thanked Pope Francis for his “defense of Islam […]
Pope Francis compares “Populists” to Hitler, calls for open doors to all migrants
So-called “populist” groups have arisen in response to the hijrah and the subsequent descent of Europe into chaos. In comments that would suggest the Pope has taken leave of his sanity: Pope Francis adopted his toughest stance ever against populism…comparing populists to Adolf Hitler and suggesting that populism caused the Second World War. It is […]
Estonia backs Hungary in sealing borders; Pope demands Baltic states open to mass migration
While Pope Francis demanded the tiny Baltic nations open up to mass migration Saturday, Estonia said it backs Viktor Orbán over the need to seal European borders against the third world influx. Pope Francis continues to preach that “Christ himself asks us to welcome our brother and sister migrants and refugees with arms wide open,” […]
Cardinal: Pope has “bigger agenda” than dealing with sex abuse scandal, such as “protecting migrants”
Protecting Catholics and others who are brutalized or even killed by Muslim migrants? No, that’s not part of the Pope’s “bigger agenda.” But it is a real concern. Somali Muslim migrant Mohammad Barry in February 2016 stabbed multiple patrons at a restaurant owned by an Israeli Arab Christian; Ahmad Khan Rahami, an Afghan Muslim migrant, […]
Catholic Church: The “loudest opponent” of Italy’s “anti-migrant” policy
The Washington Post suggests that the “loudest opponent of Italy’s new anti-migrant policy” is the Catholic Church, with some leaders going so far as to say that those who oppose open borders “cannot call themselves Christian.” In this case, the WaPo is right despite what its intention might be. The Catholic Church has become an […]
Pope Francis denounces “murderous indifference” to persecution of Christians in the Middle East
These are odd statements coming from Pope Francis, a world-class Islamopanderer; notice that he said nothing about who was doing the persecuting, and implied that it was the fault of powers outside the Middle East. The Catholic Church as a whole has committed itself to Islamopandering, such that it is largely silent about the Muslim […]
Pope Francis to celebrate “Mass for Migrants” in Vatican basilica
“Abandoned and helpless children.” Yes, that’s who these people are. Here are some: Somali Muslim migrant Mohammad Barry in February 2016 stabbed multiple patrons at a restaurant owned by an Israeli Arab Christian; Ahmad Khan Rahami, an Afghan Muslim migrant, in September 2016 set off bombs in New York City and New Jersey; Arcan Cetin, […]
Pope on migrants: “We must move from considering others as threats to our comfort to valuing them as persons”
“Threats to our comfort”? Really? Is that what motivates the opposition to mass Muslim migration into the West? The message that the Pope is sending to non-Muslims is simple: drop dead. He appears to be absolutely unconcerned about the following facts: Somali Muslim migrant Mohammad Barry in February 2016 stabbed multiple patrons at a restaurant […]
Iraqi Christian: “We have actually been weakened by the stance taken by the Vatican”
Aziz Emmanuel al-Zebari is right. Last September, the Pope met in the Vatican with Dr. Muhammad bin Abdul Karim Al-Issa, the secretary general of the Muslim World League (MWL), a group that has been linked to the financing of jihad terror. During the meeting, al-Issa thanked the Pope for his “fair positions” on what he […]
Pope Francis: “Do we really want peace? Then let’s ban all weapons so we don’t have to live in fear of war.”
Do we really want peace? Then let’s ban all weapons so we don’t have to live in fear of war. — Pope Francis (@Pontifex) April 29, 2018 Ban all weapons? Kitchen knives? Rocks? Automobiles? Does the Pope want us to live in the Stone Age? No, stones will be banned. What he is actually advocating […]
Pope insists accepting migrants should be a primary issue for Christians
Instead of misleading the flock, the Pope should lead by example: welcome any and everyone into his quarters in the Vatican and give up his security guards, in a full sacrificial welcoming of all of humanity. He will never do those things, for reasons of security and self preservation, but he attempts to deny other […]
Hugh Fitzgerald: Pope Francis Chastises the World’s Christians
Pope Francis delivered a prayer during his Good Friday via crucis, in which he chastised the world’s Christians for their behavior, for bringing so much violence into the world: Christians ought to express shame for the actions of those who are leaving future generations a world “fractured by divisions and wars,” Pope Francis said. The […]
Pope: Christians should feel shame for global strife
Pope Francis doesn’t seem to have said a word about the religion that actually teaches that believers should wage war against and subjugate unbelievers. But of course, about that religion he has said, “Authentic Islam and the proper reading of the Koran are opposed to every form of violence.” So it is the Christians who […]
Hugh Fitzgerald: Bad Advice From Pope Francis, Who Tells Us Not To Fear
“Pope expresses concern over national policies dictated by fear,” by Giulia Segreti, Reuters, March 11, 2018: Pope Francis on Sunday expressed concern over national policies dictated by fear, speaking only one week after Italy’s general elections which brought populist and anti-immigrant parties to the forefront. The Italian elections were over in early March, and the […]
Nigeria: Muslims murder Christian woman’s baby, rape and impregnate her for refusing to convert to Islam
She told all this to Pope Francis, who called her a “martyr,” but of course said nothing about the belief system that led these men to torture her and murder her baby. That was no surprise. Last September, the Pope met in the Vatican with Dr. Muhammad bin Abdul Karim Al-Issa, the secretary general of […]
At Vatican, Erdogan asks Pope to help lead “concerted and continuous international effort to fight Islamophobia”
Pope Francis loves Erdogan: he gave him 50 minutes, not the usual 30 he accords to world leaders. “Erdoğan discussed the plight of the Christians [sic] minorities in the Middle East and promised to mobilize Turkish support to help them in every possible way, just as the Ottomans did in their 600-year history.” In reality, […]
Turkey’s Erdogan to meet with Pope, thank him for opposing Trump’s recognition of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital
This is not the first time a Muslim leader has thanked Pope Francis for being so very useful to the global jihad. Last September, the Pope met in the Vatican with Dr. Muhammad bin Abdul Karim Al-Issa, the secretary general of the Muslim World League (MWL), a group that has been linked to the financing […]
Pope denounces “terrible terrorist massacre” in Kabul: “How long must the Afghan people bear this inhuman violence?”
How long? Well, sir, considering that you deny the existence of the motivating ideology behind such attacks and oversee the shunning in Catholic circles of those who identify it, I’d say indefinitely, insofar as you’re actively hindering proper analysis of this threat. Besides all that is below, Pope Francis has claimed fancifully that “authentic Islam […]
Catholic ex-Muslims to Pope Francis: “Naiveté in the face of Islam is suicidal and very dangerous”
“Many ex-Muslims, such as Magdi Allam, are even leaving the Church, disgusted by her cowardice, wounded by equivocal gestures, confused by the lack of evangelization, scandalized by the praise given to Islam.” Yes, and not just ex-Muslims. It has become a superdogma in the Catholic Church: if you don’t believe that Islam is a Religion of […]
Vatican official decries “obsession with borders and national security to detriment of rights and dignity of refugees”
The Catholic Church, which makes millions of dollars annually on refugee resettlement, is now saying that those who oppose the Muslim migrant influx are morally deficient. If you don’t want your land invaded by tens or hundreds of thousands of people with vastly different values, which they consider superior to yours, you are simply not […]
