TRUMP turns his vitriol toward the POPE
- Thread starter The Tradition
- Start date
The Vatican walls were built centuries ago, and if you visit you can freely walk in this soverign country within a city. The Vatican has also taken in Syrian refugees. Pope Francis didn't build their wall and it wasn't built on the premise of Trump's proposed wall.

He may be talking about St. Malachy's prophecies. They were the topic of the day 10 years ago among some of my Catholic friends who speculated whether we were nearing the end after Pope John Paul 2 died. Whenever I ask them about the prophecies today, they don't want to talk much about it. Not sure if that is because they are bored with it or in denial. Probably the former.
Not my view, but one doomsday article on the subject from endtime.com (that can't be good) that I found with a quick Google search. :

Why Pope St. Leo IV Built the Vatican’s Walls
By Llewellyn H. Rockwell, Jr.

To repel invading Arab Muslims, who had already sacked the little city in 846, and looted and burned Old St. peter’s, St. Paul’s-Outside-the-Walls, and much else.
I guess the saint was not only not an open-borders progressive, he was a racist, a xenophobe, an Islamophobe, a discriminator, and an opponent of diversity. Instead of building the wall, he should have simply said, “Who am I to judge?”
Writes Ralph Raico:
“Why doesn’t this Peronista just shut up on issues of politics and economics? He’s an embarrassment to people who have the best interests of the old Church at heart.”
Personally, I oppose the wall. It can be built to keep us in.
