Vatican calls US-Mexico border fence "inhuman"

From Reuters today, a report from the Catholic Church's World Day of Migrants and Refugees that takes the world, and the US in particular, to task for trying to protect and defend national borders.
A senior Vatican cardinal on Tuesday condemned the building of walls between countries to keep out immigrants and said Washington's plan to build a fence on the U.S.-Mexican border was part of an "inhuman program".
Sadly, I noticed no mention of the Vatican's imminent plans to tear down the walls surrounding their well-protected portion of the planet and open up their city to all the world's refugees and asylum seekers.

But I'm certain that's just an oversight and that the church will lead by example by tearing down their walls in the very near future. Right?

No?

If not, these funny-hatted, robe wearing intellectuals needs to shut the hell up!
