Among all the submission and stupidity of so many of our religious leaders, Cardinal Robert Sarah is a breath of fresh air. In the wake of the savage attacks in Sri Lanka, Cardinal Sarah,a high-ranking Vatican official who is originally from Guinea, has condemned the attack and named the guilty party, "barbaric Islamist violence".

Nor does Sarah share the sentiments of his boss, Pope Francis I, as to the idea of allowing millions of Muslims to flood Europe.
"The Church can not cooperate with this new form of slavery that has become mass migration. If the West continues in this fatal way, there is a great risk that, due to a lack of birth, it will disappear, invaded by foreigners, just as Rome has been invaded by barbarians."
"My country is predominantly Muslim," he said. "I think I know what reality I'm talking about."
"If Europe disappears, and with it the priceless values of the Old Continent, Islam will invade the world and we will completely change culture, anthropology, and moral vision," he said.
I just hope that the Vatican and the Pope will not pressure Sarah to apologize or retract his words.
There has been considerable speculation that an African pope is in the near future, and Sarah's name has been mentioned. I can only hope that this becomes a reality. The Church needs a Pope like this. Other churches and Christian denominations also need leaders like this.
