Yesterday, I told you about Lutherans pushing a new refugee bill, today it’s the Catholics. But, you see, if they don’t keep the refugees coming they will collapse financially—those lobby groups, the social justice gang, are nothing if they don’t have taxpayer funding.
From Catholic Culture:
The executive director of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops’ Migration and Refugee Services is urging lawmakers to the support the Refugee Protection Act, which was recently introduced in the Senate.
“Without US leadership, the situation for the world’s 15 million refugees would be much worse,” said Johnny Young, who served as US ambassador to Sierra Leone (1989-92), Togo (1994-97), Bahrain (1997-2001), and Slovenia (2001-04). “A large number of refugees rescued by our nation are themselves victims of terror and are in need of protection from such threats.
One commenter chastised the Bishops for blurring the distinction between illegal aliens and refugees. But what the commenter doesn’t know is that the USCCB and its various affiliates are also supporting illegal immigration and open borders. No sense making a distinction when there isn’t one!
From unum:
It would be helpful if Mr. Young and the bishops would distinguish between their positions on refugees, those fleeing persecution, and illegal immigrants, those merely seeking to cross national borders for other reasons. By blurring the distinction between refugees and illegal immigrants, the USCCB is undermining the efforts of civil authorities to protect national borders. These are the same civil authorities that are supported by Church teaching.
‘unum’ might want to check out a couple of links: here on the USCCB behind the ‘amnesty’ march in DC, here on the USCCB at my other blog, here (the Religious Left Exposed) and here is an interesting report on how “progressive Marxists” have infiltrated the Catholic Church.
It’s time for good Lutherans and good Catholics to begin questioning their so-called “leadership!”
