Archbishop Carlo Liberati: ‘We will be all Muslim soon due to our stupidity’

Archbishop of Pompeii Carlo LIberati said Italians will be Muslims soon, because the society is highly secularized, with the increasingly growing migrant flows into the country, reports Sеdmitsa with reference to Express.

Monsignor Liberati gave an accusatory warning after he’d observed the migration statistics and the number of detention centers opening up in Europe, suggesting it was a sure way to let Islamic faith become “mainstream”.

He said: “In 10 years we will all be Muslims because of our own stupidity. Italy and Europe live in a pagan and atheist way, they adopt laws that go against God and they have traditions that are proper of paganism.”

Carlo Liberati added: “All this moral and religious decadence favors Islam. We have a weak Christian faith. The Church nowadays does not work well and seminaries are empty.”

“Italy, along with the rest of Europe, has become a hotspot for immigration in the past decade, the Archbishop noted. “We help without delay those coming from outside and we forget many poor and old Italians who are eating from the trash. We need policies that take care of Italians first: our young people and the unemployed.”

“I am a protester. If I were not a priest, I’d be out there demonstrating in the squares. What is the point of so many migrants that instead of thanking for the food we give them, they just throw it, spend hours with their cell phones and even organize riots?”

Liberati even accused the Catholic church of donating too much money to the recent migrants.

He said: “Giving money to migrants wandering around town is not only wrong, but morally harmful because we encourage their behavior and they get used to that, not mentioning the fact that we already feed them. I think sometimes this creates a beggars’ network. I remember that my father went to work very hard as a migrant in Australia so I could go to the seminar. So he has experienced in his own skin the discomfort of poverty and the noble virtue of gratitude for landing the job”.
