Pope Francis: ‘We Are Racists, We Are Racists’


ROME, Italy — Pope Francis accused the West of racism Friday, insisting migrants are “subdivided” by skin color and country of origin.

“Refugees are subdivided,” the pontiff declared during a lengthy Good Friday interview on Italian television. “There’s first class, second class, skin color, [whether] they come from a developed country [or] one that is not developed.”

“We are racists, we are racists. And this is bad,” the pope stated.

The Vatican has a very large wall around it. Maybe tear that down to practice what you preach?

Fact: The catholic church owns over 177 million acres, or 277,000 square miles, in the US alone. And all of that is exempt from property taxes.

After many years of investigating religious, spiritual and philosophical ways of relating the the Holy as I understand it, started practicing a modern reconstruction of the beliefs and practices of my pre-Christian northwestern European ancestors.

I take a much more simplistic approach:
By nature, I'm a scientist, so I'm also agnostic. But I was brought up in a Christian home with all the morals and values, and believe in the values of being a good person and living a good life without the overhead of a religion. Good for the sake of being good, not because of any group following.

My Mrs. was raised Greek Orthodox, but became an agnostic deist over the course of her teen and young adult years.

We have compatible values from our upbringing at home, basically, do that which is Right for family, friends and community. Treat others with courtesy, a friendly manner and tolerance, until they have earned better, worse or indifference by their actual words and deeds.
