St Catherine of Sienna, pray for me.



The Church would be better off if the Pope spoke about religious matters and did not enter politics. 
There is a world of difference between a migrant and a refugee. A migrant comes for financial gain but a refugee comes because he has no alternative. In the real world, Holy Father, mass migration is controlled because the host country cannot guarantee jobs, housing, and financial support. Far from gaining financially the host country will watch all of its citizens become poorer. Yes, we can bang the drum and shout we need doctors and nurses and take them from third world countries but for example in India there is just one doctor for every ten thousand people.     Do you see the stumbling block, Pope Francis.      On refugees, yes you are on more solid ground but why are you ignoring the plight of Christians and Catholics, the very people you should be protecting. In Syria for example Christians cannot settle in a large town like Mosul for they found on the invasion of ISIS many of their neighbours were too happy to point out their houses. Although they can settle in small villages they find it impossible since the UN seems to refuse to give them any money towards resettlement although they cater for the Moslem population. And remember that those who remain in refugee camps are the ones who cannot afford  the fares to cross the Mediterranean nor do they have the mobile phones many of these migrants have to inform folks back home that they have arrived in Europe.
