I have read that during the September 8th services, the Catholic Church is planning a massive push for amnesty for illegal aliens who have broken our laws. I would hope that the Diocese of Ft. Wayne/South Bend would opt not to endorse lawlessness, as a famous Catholic university within the Diocese has done.
Using the Affordable Care Act as proof, whatever the congress comes up with to address the issue of illegal aliens in this country is more likely to be thousands of pages of undecipherable, unenforceable, gobbledygook that, in the end, worsens the problem, than a sensible, compassionate approach to dealing with illegal aliens.
Instead of advocating for lawlessness, the church instead should focus on why we are where we are. We need illegal aliens because our own population is about 50 million people short of supplying the necessary employees to sustain Social Security and do the work
Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me for 40 years, shame on a large unwieldy religious bureaucracy. It seems to me, the church leadership has been fooled by Democrat propaganda for the last 40 years. I thought after the Affordable Care Act lies, the leadership of my church would wise up.
Remember when President Obama and the Democrats assured us that the Affordable Care Act would NOT be used to funnel tax dollars to provide abortion? Now we hear that the abortion mill known as Planned Parenthood is receiving millions of tax payer dollars to shill for the act. That fact coupled with the bishop’s ongoing battle with the administration over the right of consciences to not fund abortion at Catholic institutions should be enough to convince the bishops that this administration in particular and Democrats in general cannot be trusted.
Yet, as soon as another mountain of law constructed by Democrats rolls off the congressional press, there’s the leadership of my church again cheering the event without ever looking at the law or, it seems, considering its consequences.
Here’s what we can expect if the Democrat version of comprehensive immigration reform is adopted:
The law will be used to establish a one a party system in
Given the excesses of government infringement under the Affordable Care Act, how safe will the church feel when there is NO political opposition to that government overreach? Once it has served its purpose, the Democrats will turn their full attention to destroying the Catholic Church and then religion (except Islam) in
When I hear the petitions read during mass to help cloth, house and feed the needy, I assume that is call for me to support Catholic Charities and do what I can to help solve the problem. But honestly, I wonder how many hear the petitions as an appeal to vote Democrat? When the question is asked, “What did you do to help the needy?” Is the correct answer, “Well, I voted Democrat so they’d heal the sick, cloth, house and feed the needy, and provide a sanctuary for the population of the world all by raising my neighbor’s taxes and then wasting the money”?
With great respect,
