Pope Francis on Tuesday
said xenophobia isn't a problem only in Africa as it represents
"a human disease, like measles", talking to reporters aboard the
papal plane while returning to Rome from Madagascar.
The pontiff also said erecting walls is not the answer as
"walls leave those who built them alone".
Francis then said the is not afraid of a schism within the
Catholic Church, referring to criticism from conservative
Catholics in the US about his leadership.
"I pray that there will not be schisms but I am not afraid",
he said.
