As a cradle Catholic, but no longer practicing, I demand my multicult rights to make this criticism, with years of tears of frustration at the direction of the Mother Church. Not only does Pope Francis welcome what he described in his own words as an “Arab invasion,” but when asked about the election of Donald Trump, he said that while he did not want to pass judgment on politicians, contradicting himself, that he wants us to “understand the suffering that their approach causes the poor and excluded,” meaning refugees and migrants.

Well if he feels so strongly, here is what he should do. Liquidate the Catholic Church! Sell up the Vatican, all of the countless trillions and zillions of dollars of riches accumulated over the centuries. Land, artworks, schools, universities, the lot should be sold. Go back to the poverty of Jesus! Have church services in rented community centres. Then pool this great wealth and buy up vast amounts of land in Africa. Let the refugees go there and live very well. Let the Africans live well too, thousands of time better than they do now.
So Pope Francis, time to show humanity an example. Do this, and I will return to the flock. I promise.
