To the editor: Pope Francis must be recommended for his concern and caring for migrants. However it’s relatively disingenuous for the pope to criticize the United States for wanting to construct a wall to maintain undocumented immigrants out when there was a stone wall round a lot of Vatican Metropolis for a lot of centuries.
Maybe his deep concern for immigrants might induce the pope to take a airplane load of our undocumented immigrants and make a house for them in Vatican Metropolis. This might be a most charitable act.

To the editor: Pope Francis, in a world overpopulated with greed and neglect valuing the almighty greenback greater than humanity, has introduced residence, as he ought to, the true which means of what it’s to be and act as a Christian.
He wrote: “Christian love will not be a concentric enlargement of pursuits that little by little prolong to different individuals and teams. The true ordo amoris that have to be promoted is that which we uncover by meditating continually on the parable of the ‘Good Samaritan’ … that’s, by meditating on the love that builds a fraternity open to all, with out exception.”
President Trump’s preliminary govt orders are merciless, clearly representing the far-right extremists of Mission 2025 who want to destroy America’s system of checks and balances.
On this problematic, overpopulated world that continues to spin on its axis despite the ever-increasing weight of negativity, I can’t assist however marvel if Trump voters ever ask themselves critically, “What would Jesus do?”
