Urges Europeans to accept Muslim mass migration. Fails to mention churches being attacked by Muslims in Nigeria.
Even as Christians continue to suffer in Nigeria, Pope Leo chose to exclude them from his “Urbi et Orbi” Christmas message in which he claimed that “Jesus took upon himself our fragility, identifying with each one of us: with those who have nothing left and have lost everything, like the inhabitants of Gaza; with those who are prey to hunger and poverty, like the Yemeni people; with those who are fleeing their homeland to seek a future elsewhere, like the many refugees and migrants who cross the Mediterranean or traverse the American continent.”
The majority of those he’s specifically invoking in national contexts are Muslims in Gaza, and Yemen Muslims and other Muslim mass migrants trying to “cross the Mediterranean” to reach Europe.
But he also spares a thought for the non-Muslim illegal aliens trying to invade America.
What’s interesting about the international prayers in the pope’s message is that the nations and territories that he mentions, “Lebanon, Palestine, Israel and Syria”, “Sudan, South Sudan, Mali, Burkina Faso and the Democratic Republic of Congo”, Haiti, Burma, Cambodia, Thailand, Yemen, Gaza, are mostly non-Christian. Apart from Haiti and Congo, they’re non-Christians areas.
And Pope Leo can’t help but exclude Nigeria, where Christian churches continue to be attacked by Muslims. Out of all that benevolence and all the prayers for peace in Muslim countries, he can’t seem to find the time to express anything for Nigeria’s Christians.
Attackers opened fire as they entered Aiyetoro Kiri in the Kabba-Banu Local Government Area on Dec. 14, disrupting worship at First Evangelical Church Winning All. They subsequently abducted at least 13 worshippers, Christian Solidarity Worldwide reported.
The Dec. 14 abductions marked the second attack on a church in Kogi State within two weeks. On Nov. 30, militia disrupted services at the Cherubim and Seraphim Church in Ejiba, abducting the pastor, his wife, a visiting preacher and several church members.
Pope Leo is happy to advocate for Muslims in Yemen, Gaza and anywhere else, but he refuses to talk about Muslims killing Christians. When he’s forced to, he blames everything except Islam.
“I think in Nigeria, in certain areas, there is certainly a danger for Christians, but for all people. Christians and Muslims have been slaughtered,” he said.
“There’s a question of terrorism. There’s a question that has to do a lot with economics, if you will, and control of the lands that they have.”
It’s not Islamic terrorism, it’s economics. And Europe is supposed to accept Muslim mass migration with “the Yemeni people; with those who are fleeing their homeland to seek a future elsewhere, like the many refugees and migrants who cross the Mediterranean” who surely won’t do to Christians in Europe what they’ve already been doing to Christians in Africa.

The Catholic Church is lost. Pope Leo the Muddled is oblivious to the utter destruction of fthe Church in Europe. How is this possible? It makes me turn away in disgust.

Yes, the Catholic Church of old is gone and it’s never coming back. Vatican II killed it.

Pope Leo the Liar reminds me of “Leo the Last” in John Boorman’s underrated movie.
Karen Dowden says
Pope Leo is such a major disappointment. He is not stupid so I can only put it down to cowardice and fear. After Francis I really hoped and expected better but it is as bad or actually worse, due to what is actually happening around the globe.
What a disgrace for a Catholic church leader!
Siddi Nasrani says
Sack the Pope, he is not fit for purpose, shame on him, he is a Marxist/Muslim lover.
Both groups wilfully tell blatant lies, so therefore cannot be trusted.
Remember YHVA speaks the truth, while Satan is the Father of Lies.
Bill says
Leo is unwittingly(?) a stooge for Satan. Ignoring atrocities against Christians he is just an apologist for Muslims in which he also becomes an enabler of their violence. The huge increase in antisemitism is a big red flag that the end times are quickening, but God is in control, and we have read the end of the book.
An eternal perspective is essential.

Had I been Catholic, I’d be looking at alternatives
GE says
It has crossed my mind, Infidel. Being Eastern Rite, our liturgy is the same as the Orthodox, so I’m thinking why not switch? I believe our Mr. Spencer did the same.

Yes, he did.
࿗Infidel࿘ says
Yeah, there was an interview he did a few days ago w/ someone who, as a Catholic, asked him what made him leave the Catholic church. Robert went into his meetings w/ a Colorado or New England Catholic leader who told him that he was violating doctrine by speaking out against islam
gravenimage says
Yes–just terrible. I don’t blame Robert Spencer for leaving the Catholic Church.
somehistory says
Jesus gave the Apostle Peter the “keys of the Kingdom” and asked him several times, ”If you love me, feed my little sheep.”
Peter did that….by telling people the “good news about Christ,” and by encouraging Christians to stand firm and ‘oppose the devil.’ He wrote two letters in that regard. He knew Christians were ‘suffering persecution in the world.’
The claim is made that the pope in the Catholic church, ‘sits on the throne of Peter.’ The ‘pope’ is called ‘holy’ and is said to “see.”
This creature who has taken the name of Leo, and the previous creature who called himself Francis, are nothing like Peter, nor are they doing what Jesus asked Peter to do: “Feed my sheep.”
Francis didn’t feed the sheep, unless demanding that they give all to their muzzie invaders counts.
Leo isn’t feeding the sheep either, unless demanding that they take care of those who will make fodder out of them, counts.
Jesus was not an “illegal, migrant, invader, interloper, rapist, or murderer.” Jesus set a Standard for all of those who would be “shepherds of the flock” to follow.
The pope is just another dolt, a stooge for satan the devil, doing his ‘father’s desires.’
The Catholic people, for their own wellbeing, should ignore him and stop donating to his ‘treasure.’
Taffy says
Excellent analysis! Te divisiveness that this causes within the Church will lead to shrinking membership, and lackadaisical church attendance and religious practice. The latter will accept the next generation’s practice of the religion,
somehistory says
Thank you, Taffy
Bob says
A Pope by any other name (or ethnicity) is just a Pope.
Hoi Polloi says
Close your purses to this traitor. Jesus is in no way comparable to these evil doers and His flock should never be denigrated by their own in comparison to these bloodthirsty invaders.
Billy says
Incompetent, virtue-signaling Leo further encourages the Islamization of the West instead of preaching the Gospel to Muslims because terroristic Islam and its Muslims are Antichrist against all Non-Muslims as taught in Islam’s Qur’an(Qur’an 9:5, 29,111; 49:15, etc.).
Allah’s Islam, a CRIMINAL-TERRORIST-GANG ENTERPRISE and a MURDEROUS-DEMONIC CULT OF BELIEVERS, Terrorist Muslim Soldiers for satanic Allah, continually fund, promote, and practice ideological subversion, propaganda, bigotry, discrimination, deceit, industrial-scale slavery, human trafficking, intimidation, supremacy, segregation, hatred, incitement to violence, criminality, genocide, victimhood, censorship, and terrorism as taught in Islamic Law, Sharia, and in Islam’s Qur’an(Qur’an 5:14,35; 8:60; 9:41, 88, etc.). Islam and its Muslims, enemies of Non-Muslims, are a Muslim Terrorist Organization(MTO).
Allah describes Muslim women in Jenna, Allah’s Paradise, as whores of Allah in Qur’an 56:37. Also, Deceitful Allah stirs hatred against Christians until the resurrection day when Qur’an 5:14 instructs, “And some of those who say, ‘Surely we are Nasara (Christians),’ we took their covenant. So they have forgotten a part of what they were reminded of, so we have stirred up ENMITY and HATRED among them until the resurrection day. And Allah will inform them of what they were doing.” See also Qur’an 60:4; 8:55.
As taught by Allah, Muslims are supremacist terrorists for Allah with their MONEY and with their LIVES while undermining a society from within using the man-made book of lies and deceit, the Qur’an. Allah in Qur’an 49:15 states, “Surely the believers[Muslims] are only those who believed in Allah and his messenger. They do not doubt, and they performed jihad with their MONEY and their LIVES for the sake of Allah. Those are the truthful.” As evidenced by continuous Muslim attacks, Allah in Qur’an 4:101 says, “…Surely the infidels(Non-Muslims) were your clear enemies.”
ALLAH’S MUSLIMS are a greater TERROR than diabolical Allah. Allah in Qur’an 59:13 says, “You[Muslims] are a greater terror in their chests than Allah. This is because they[Jews & Christians] are people who do not understand.” Islam must be banned as illegal, and we have the legal right to defend ourselves from Muslim violence. As a result, Non-Muslims are marked for death by Islam and its Muslims. Allah in Qur’an 9:29 commands, “Engage in war with those who do not believe in Allah nor in the last day. Nor forbid what Allah and his messenger forbid, nor believe in the religion of the truth among those who have given the book until they pay the jizyah out of hand and they are subdued.”
Again, Islam is a civilization-destroying, totalitarian, and supremacist system of lies and deceit because Allah, the best deceiver, is the actual source of Muslim deceit as taught in Islam’s Qur’an. Muslims under Islam’s system of deceit are more easily controlled because their is no foundation for truth in Islam. Allah in Qur’an 3:54 says, “And they deceived, and Allah deceived. And Allah is the best deceiver.” Allah in Qur’an 8:30 says, “…And Allah is the best deceiver.” Allah in Qur’an 13:42 says, “And indeed, those before them deceived, so to Allah all the deception…”
Eddie says
There is some sort of insanity affecting the leaders of Western countries and Church leaders not just the Pope.
In all sincerity what is this madness ?
Does it come from Satan ?
In the 2,000 years since Christ died for us the World has seen much evil.
If a God of goodness does exist then he is leaving things a bit late to rescue the Faith which follows His Son.
My Faith is shaken.
The Meek show no chance of inheriting the Earth . Time is not on our side.
somehistory says
Don’t give up, Eddie. Jesus said it was going to be this way, and that when we “see these things,” He said to “Raise yourselves erect and lift up your heads as your deliverance is near.”
He will soon return to rescue and reward those who “endure to the end.” Don’t give up now. We are so close.

Would he say anything about this?
“NEW DELHI — A Hindu extremist mob in northern India assaulted two Christian couples and an attorney for several hours, accusing them of forced conversion.
In Haryana state’s Titoli village, 5 miles from the city of Rohtak, the mob forced one of the Christians, a pastor, to set fire to a heap of Bibles while the Hindu extremists recorded videos that immediately went viral, resulting in 32 complaints to the police.
Pastor Jehovah Das, 65, and Vinod Masih, 42, along with their wives, had been invited to a Christian family’s home in the village to pray and bless the arrival of their second child on Nov. 7, sources said.
About 10 to 12 members of the Arya Samaj (Noble Society), a Hindu reform movement, learned of the Christians’ visit. They phoned several of their associates and gathered a mob of about 50 people that barged into the house.
“They began to beat us with slaps, punches, elbows, kicked us with their legs and held us hostage,” Masih told Morning Star News, adding that they beat the Christians from 10:30 a.m. until 3 p.m.
The Hindu extremists, whose number had then reached 80, searched their car, pulled out all Bibles and tracts and cast them onto the ground into a heap. They shot videos that showed the two couples, disoriented and in shock, forced to repeat that they intended “conversion” in the village and that they would never return.”
A whole lot of other stuff happened….it’s a long page of what happened over the course of the day. After they were beaten, held hostage, their attorney came and they did the same things to him. Later, the police arrived and took the Christians to the police station where they were made to sign papers agreeing with the demands made and that they would not file a complaint.
No muzzies were involved, so what does the pope have to say?

Pope Leo: Jesus Identified with Gaza Muslims and Illegal Aliens
……………………………………………….
There were thankfully no Muslims during Jesus’ incarnation, so how did Jesus identify with these Jihad terrorists? And where did he ever preach horrors like the terrorist attacks of 10/7? And where did Jesus ever tell his followers to invade countries and break their laws?
Then Pope Leo claiming that Muslims in Nigeria as kidnapping, raping, forcibly marrying, and mass murdering Christians and that this is fine for “economic” reasons is grotesque. The country is now run by Muslims–the claim that persecuted Christians are all wealthy is of course ludicrously false, in addition to everything else.
Boko Haram and other Jihad terror groups make it clear that they are acting in the name of Islam–but I guess that we are supposed to ignore this.
Africon says
Everyone in Africa tries to play pretend there is no Islam vs Christianity conflict. This is to protect the nation from fragmentation.
You maybe think ok, if it break up, this is good. No, because Muslims are conquerors, they will just attack across the new border.
Christians are not interested in fighting back, they just scream please don’t kill us , please stop, someone please help! Please don’t steal our aid and medicine!
So the central government ignores the problem and ignores the Christians, why should they care? The Christians will not do anything. The Muslim are volitile. You must appease them because they may attack anyone. Christians will never do anything. So everyone is afraid to insult or confront the Muslims, they give them separate sharia law! And it is not enough! It is never enough!
The church is more of a help to the Muslims than the Christians in Africa. (Nigeria is Anglican, which is even worse)…
gravenimage says
There *is* no “Islam vs Christianity conflict”–there are Muslims murdering Christians. If Nigeria were a decent nation they would would be acting to protect their citizens. Your idea that enabling terrorists to mass murder half the population is ” protect the nation from fragmentation” is grotesque.
The idea that Nigeria or any other country is fine in condoning the mass slaughter of non-violent citizens is sickening. And look what has happened in other Muslim-majority nations–does appeasing Jihad terrorists *ever* lead to strong nations? Ask Somalia and Syria and Yemen and Libya to start.
Africon says
No choice. The north controls the country and military….
Muslims have cheap weapons coming down all from muslim countries. For Christians you cannot buy much.
So you keep your head down and hope something good happens. They come for girls because they are short of women, In Islam, a man marries more than one wife. That means some man will be without a wife. So he buys one from terrified terrorists.
So regular people are terrorists. A terrorist simply goes home to his parents after he steals kills and finds a free wife. It is hard to find terrorists.
gravenimage says
The claim that the now Muslim government has “no choice” but to allow Nigerian Muslims commit genocide against Christians there is false. They *could* defend the Christian population–they do not want to.
And Nigeria is supposed to alternate between Muslim and Christian presidents–but the last Christian president, Goodluck Jonathan, left office ten years ago. Did Muslims have “no choice” but to flout this Nigerian law?
And the claim that Jihad terrorists are kidnapping Christian girls because Muslims are “short of women” is grotesque. Muslims practice polygamy and kidnap and rape Christians and other Infidels as a tactic of Islamic supremacy, *not* because Muslims are short on women.
Then, the claim that Jihad terrorists are *terrified* and have to sell women they have kidnapped to fellow Muslims is just grotesque apologia.
And I wish it ^were* hard to find terrorists–there are all too many of them, including in Nigeria. Boko Haram is not really hiding. Try again.
Bexarkat says
I believe if Jesus was alive on Earth on October 7th, 2023, he would have donned his IDF reservist’s uniform and slung his TAR-21 combat assault rifle over his shoulders and would then have made his way south to join his combat unit to fight the hordes that spilled over from Gaza. Like most Israeli Jews he was a man of peace until pushed to his limits.
memi says
The Pope should perhaps seek a political venue, not a religious one!
Archbishop Damaskinos of Athens refused to submit lists of Jewish names to the Nazis during World War II and actively worked to save thousands of Greek Jews. He is recognized by YAD VASHEM as “Righteous Among the Nations” for his efforts. Well-deserved but his example is being forgotten and ethos is not existent in the Vatican government.
He formally protested the deportation of Jews in a strong letter, the only public letter of its kind from a Christian leader in occupied Europe.
*When threatened with execution by firing squad by the SS commander, Damaskinos famously replied, “According to the traditions of the Greek Orthodox Church, our prelates are hanged, not shot. Please respect our traditions!”.
He ordered priests and monasteries to issue false Christian baptismal certificates and shelter Jews, and colluded with Athens police chief Angelos Evert to provide false ID cards!
His courageous stance and actions led to thousands of Athenian Jews being hidden and saved from deportation to concentration camps.
The Pope could learn from the Christian Orthodox example – or try a political venue.
The Orthodox Christians have never have had one nor worship Catholic Popes. Each and each Bishop is considered “EQUAL to all others”. No “religious government” is needed in Orhtodoxy and its head is in Constantinople (istanbul) while UNESCO-protected Byzantine Orthodox hAgia Sophia is being desecrated, turned into a Mosque by Erdogan Islamists and allowing heavy trucks on its floor. And this while Turks are entering and stealing invaluaable cultural Byzantine art pieces! Islamic (lack of) “civilization” at its best! Nothing’s changed for these barbarians.

I’m sorry to beat a dead horse, but please everyone, remember that none of this is by accident or caused by “incompetence” or “insanity.” it is all part of a very long-running plan to reduce everyone to serfdom and impoverishment, all for the further (and permanent generational) enrichment and power of the people behind it. If any of them feel any guilt about this, which I very much doubt, they assuage it by reminding themselves that a lot of poor savages will be lifted up economically. As the great futurist writer Neal Stephenson put it, in1994, “to the level of a Pakistani brickmaker.”
somehistory says
The Bible says a ‘thousand years is a day” to God. And His Son returned to heaven ***less than 2000 years ago,” which is less than two days to God and His Son.
Those who mock, and say 2 thousand years and imply that nothing will happen, don’t know of what they write/speak.
And what is more, trying to tear down one who has expressed his feelings, is just plain evil.

STJOHNOFGRAFTON
Those verses do not say that ‘we all killed Jesus.’ They say that God gave Jesus to save us from our sins.
We have the guilt of imperfection and sin, but we are not guilty for the death of Christ. The pharisees set Jesus up, Judas betrayed Him, many of the Jews that day called for Him to die and then the Romans murdered Him.
