ABC News reports that, in his homily, Pope Prevost criticized the surge of "nationalist political movements in the world" and called for "reconciliation and dialogue" with... well, he didn't say who we should "dialogue" with, but I would guess that he meant the people now mixing up the Molotov cocktails.
That would accord with the Pope's pledges to make the Catholic Church a symbol of peace. Last Sunday was Pentecost Sunday, so Leo asked the Holy Spirit to "break down barriers and tear down the walls of indifference and hatred." The leftist commentariat tell us he meant the Great Wall now abuilding between the USA and Mexico, not the other one.
"Where there is love, there is no room for prejudice," the Pontiff went on (and on) "for 'security’ zones separating us from our neighbours, for the exclusionary mindset that, tragically, we now see emerging also in political nationalisms." Again, he did not name any specific country or politician.
"First of all, peace in our hearts, for only a peaceful heart can spread peace in the family, society and international relations," Leo said, then prayed for reconciliation and dialogue wherever there is war in the world. He didn't say anything about Los Angeles.
