Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò Fires Back: Defends Trump’s Immigration Policies Against Newly Appointed DC Archbishop’s Claims of ‘Incompatibility with Catholic Doctrine’

The ideological battle over immigration policies has spilled into the Catholic Church, with Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò forcefully countering claims made by the newly appointed Washington, DC, Archbishop Robert McElroy.

McElroy, widely known for his leftist views and frequent critiques of President Trump, suggested on Monday that Trump’s proposed deportation policies are “incompatible with Catholic doctrine.”

During a press conference, McElroy acknowledged that the Catholic Church recognizes a nation’s right to secure its borders.
However, he claimed that large-scale deportations of illegal immigrants would violate the dignity of individuals and Catholic teachings, Breitbart reported.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

Didn't Jesus say to give unto Caesar that which was Caesar's and unto God that which is God's?  Doesn't that mean separation of church and state? :pondering:

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.

The reality is that bringing people here where they do not speak the language and exploiting them while giving them handouts really doesn't do them any favors. It isn't kindness, just virtue signalling.

Send them home with a head full of possibilities, and let them fix their own countries. Don't give them a fish, teach them to fish.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
