I'm not sure what your objection was to what Leeds said. Yes, Vatican city is
walled off. Yes, the *front porch*(Saint Peter's plaza) is open to the public
24/7. Yes, the rest of Vatican city has controlled entry points beyond the
plaza and Basilica. No, not everyone can go where ever they please in Vatican
City at any time.One certainly couldn't move into Vatican City uninvited.

Nonsense. Vatican City isn't all behind St. Peter's. Look at a map
sometime. And there are guards at each point of entry to the White House as
well. Of course there are places you can't just come and go as you please, but
the Vatican isn't walled off from the rest of Rome the way Leeds claims.

St Peter's Basilica acts as a section of the wall in it's self. Just lock the
front door and the Vatican is closed off to the public with the exception of
the plaza in front. There are Swiss Guards at each point of entry through the
wall. Nobody comes and goes as they please beyond certain points.

Not true. There are many openings in the wall around the Vatican. The biggest
is the opening that leads to the huge plaza in front of St. Peter's Basilica.
Thousands surge through it every time the pope is scheduled to appear; tourists
wander through all the time without having to go through any checkpoints.

>From the article:
"Yes, the Vatican does have walls, and some are quite large. But anyone can
stroll through the Pope's front yard -- St. Peter's Square -- at nearly any
time. Only metal detectors stand between the iconic landmark and the millions
of tourists who come to see the historic headquarters of the Roman Catholic
Church."In other words, Vatican City may have walls, but the front door is
always open, said the Rev. James Martin, a Catholic priest and editor at large
at America magazine."

Maharishi also speaks in the Gita about the balance of heart and mind. One
should not rule over the other. If we are all compassionate without thinking
things through, we get ourselves in trouble. If we are all mind and intellect,
we lose our full potential as humans. There needs to be a balance.Maharishi
said Arjuna had a rare balance of both heart and mind. He didn't want to fight
and kill his own family and loved ones but he also knew the consequences of not
doing his duty. In the end, Arjuna performs his duty and fulfills his dharma.
Nobody wants entire populations uprooted and moved into foreign, both
culturally and physically, new locations that cause conflict for everyone
involved, yet this is the result of past policies in the EU. Europeans are
rethinking what they have done and realizing being open and unconditionally
welcoming without thinking things through wasn't the smartest move for either
migrants or their local populations. There have got to be better ways that have
not been explored yet.

Yes, we saw what the open, welcoming and loving arms of the Europeans brought
them. I doubt that the Pope's washing the feet of Muslims will have any affect
on Muslims(in general), maybe on his own soul but little on theirs. If you want
to be served, you must first serve. Karma. Doesn't mean the person you served
is going to serve you back. Indeed , he may serve you with a knife in your
back. Another wise man said "Trust but verify". These migrants aren't being
vetted. There is little or no verification of their true intent or what they
expect to give or receive from their newly adopted countries. What is their
capacity to get along?
Here is what I say: stop focusing on the Muslims/Syrian immigrants and take
note of your neighbors, your country, your fellow Americans. There is enough
violence, ignorance, intolerance, religiouszealousness and threat to keep you
busy without worrying about other countries, other cultures. There is not a
continent, a race or a society that is without its fanatics, its desecrations,
its cruelty. My point was really about how the Pope is one Christian who
practices what he preaches, who is not a hypocrite. The amount of "Christians"
in the USA who fail miserably at demonstrating the same spirit as this current
Pope is astounding. ISIS is one thing, the rest of it is quite another. The
inability to recognize this is not only crippling but disastrous.

I love this guy.

Drumpf wants to build walls and deport and the Pope washes and kisses their
feet instead. Guess what is the most disarming, breaks down hatred faster?
