“For a religious leader to question a person’s faith is disgraceful. I am proud to be a Christian and as President I will not allow Christianity to be consistently attacked and weakened, unlike what is happening now, with our current President. No leader, especially a religious leader, should have the right to question another man’s religion or faith,” wrote the Republican presidential candidate on his website.MORE: Donald Trump Slams Pope Francis, Calls Him ‘Disgraceful’ | Donald Trump, pope francis : Just Jared | http://www.justjared.com/2016/02/18/donald-trump-slams-pope-francis-calls-him-disgraceful/?trackback=tsmclip
Pope Francis questioned Donald Trump's Christianity Thursday over the Republican presidential hopeful's plan to build a wall on the Mexican border, but the Pope himself lives behind massive stone walls.
This happen after he departed from a weeklong tour in which he spoke before millions of people. Pope criticizes Trumph who made hi plan to build a wall and make Mexico to pay for it a centerpiece of his campaign.
"A person who thinks only about building walls, wherever they may be, and not building bridges, is not Christian," Pope Francis said. "This is not in the Gospel."
The Vatican's walls, which do not completely surround the enclave, date back more than 1,000 years, to the time of Pope Leo IV, who commissioned the construction of what is known as the Leonine Wall following the sacking of Old St. Peter's Basilica by Islamic Saracens in 846.
