“All those who want to put me in opposition to the Pope waste their time and energies,” Cardinal Robert Sarah told Atlantico.fr (April 14),
"Their claims are wind and a shield hiding their own opposition to the Holy Father,” he added, "To assert that I oppose the Pope is at the same time unjust and dishonest."
Atlantico.fr alludes that Sarah's position on immigration contradicts Pope Francis' position.
Sarah replies, "One has the impression that, in our days, it is forbidden to reflect on something." He explains, "Why does one want to forbid an African to reflect on such a serious question and oppose him against the Pope?"
And, "We must understand more deeply the tragic phenomenon of migration, instead of opposing each other."
Sarah goes on calling modern immigration a "new form of slavery" and "disregard for human dignity." And, "We are pretending to be charitable and welcoming to those whose country we have destroyed."
