#1 Europe would be better served and more stable if it were served by a common culture and religious sensibility than it has been by a common currency.

Pay attention to that and to the Muslim invasion, Your Holiness.

#2 So true nmu. You can't have a successful democracy without a demos, a people with a common culture and understanding of the world in which they live.

If you try and force a conglomeration of tribes together you get trouble. Europe has never been united enough to have a common government but there are always those willing to act as the "interim" dictator.

#4 Anti-Pope Frannie is confusing the institution for the essence.

Europe is more likely to survive if the Eurocrats have their wings clipped.

#5 Pope should promote uniting African countries where they have real issues that could be resolved if they truly believed in something greater than their tribe.

#6 "Europe itself is in danger of 'falling apart'"

And how much of that crap is the fault of YOU and the other business-hating Leftists, Mr. Pope?

#8 This is the same pope that said Europe should welcome all the Islamic refugees and let them into Europe homes. He is more in line with anarchists than he is with Christians.

#9 Strange, the Pope has been soft on the invasion of Europe by northern Africans and Mid-eastern immigrants into Europe and now he is concerned about Europe falling apart? That's kind of like Obama saying he is sorry that police officers are being shot and yet he has encouraged this via his anti-police policies.

#12 Pope Francis's Communist mentor.

What on earth were the cardinals thinking when they elected him?

#13 "Europe itself is in danger of 'falling apart'"

I think Europe is past that point now.
