The 4th paragraph of the article below is a quotation by Pope Francis in which he talks about the damage done to human dignity by American immigration policy. This passage exemplifies why this truth-telling man has been, for the last 12 years, the most exemplary human being on the world stage.
Almost every American politician - wherever they fall on the political spectrum - is missing in action when it comes to the unrelentingly loving message, and open-handed outreach, of the gospel.
Please take the following information to heart. (And if you are a "Christian" "conservative," ask yourself why you would NEVER share this information with your pastor, or Sunday school teacher.)
Everything Jesus (And The Apostles) Had To Say About Rich People And Poor People
It is a tragic fact that American politicians reflect the will of the largely meanspirited American people, and therefore they will not even proclaim the truth verbally, much less put their coddled careers at risk by actively advocating for the loving, honorable treatment of “the least among us.” (Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez are notable exceptions to this general rule.)

As a people, we adulate the self-professed malignancy at the top of our ruthless food chain — incontrovertible proof that we have given up on joy, deciding instead to pursue the ill-fated acquisition of limitless wealth with which we try to fill the persistent holes in our lives with a never-ending cascade of purchasable pleasures - gold-plated toilet seats, and porn-star-prostitutes at $130,000.00 a pop.

"There Is No Fear In Love": Ersatz Christians Think Mere Proclamations Of Accepting "Lord Jesus Christ As Their Personal Lord And Savior" Guarantees Their Salvation, But Not Even God Can Save People From Themselves
Make no mistake.
Joy is the prize.
Sadly (if not tragically) we Americans have settled for the consolation prize: “Stuff, more stuff, and where the hell am I gonna store the stuff?”
If there is anything approximating the traditional Christian view of death when we "shuffle off this mortal coil,” there will be a continual torrent of surprises at “The Pearly Gates.”
Americans have been bought off by the many false promises of Cowboy Capitalism (chiefly the false promise that pleasure can replace joy), not to mention the false prophets of “the prosperity gospel”; and the bogus enticements of the Beelzebubbian liar-cheat-felon-seditionist-traitor-pussy-grabbing-cruelest in the Oval Office.
Note well. A normal mind cannot "take in" the breadth-and-depth of the malevolence and malice embodied by Mafia Don. Instead, we block out all the grotesqueries that are too disturbing -- among them the ongoing destruction of American Democracy, and its replacement with an arrogant, cruel, dictatorial-buffoon.
