Pope slammed for Promoting Open Borders on Christmas Day
, The Rundown News:
Pope Francis made clear his affirmative position on open borders once again in his annual Christmas Eve address, raising eyebrows within the conservative community.
Associated Press reported:
The pope also noted migrants forced by injustice “to emigrate in the hope of a secure life.’’ Instead of finding acceptance, Francis said injustice continues along their journey, where they often face abuse, enslavement and torture in “inhumane detention camps″ and death during dangerous sea and desert crossings.
And once migrants arrive in “places where they might have hoped for a dignified life’’ … they “instead find themselves before walls of indifference,″ he said.
Pope Francis, beloved among many liberal agnostics and throughly despised by many conservative Catholics in America, has a sordid relationship with President Donald J. Trump. Earlier this year, he described Trump’s border policies “cruel.” He has often directed subtle criticism towards the 45th President in the subtext of public addresses.
