I can analyze this behavior by Marxist Socialists among the Catholic Church pretty reasonably, but I can't seem to ever pinpoint the actual source of where and how and by whom this is being encouraged (other than I am concluding various Catholic Bishops in the U.S. and in Central America who are motivating this trend).

I'm a Catholic but I consider illegal immigration to be both theft and fraud (as to my religiously defined ethics), and, of course, a series of grave violations of our laws in the U.S. (so condemnable on several civil levels accordingly).

However, what we seem to have today in the Catholic Church is a very intelligent, academic Pope who when he intervenes and speaks publicly, makes a great deal of sense as a representative among us of Christianity. Then we have, contrary to that, many Catholic Bishops in the U.S. who routinely promote Marxist Socialism as their "version" or "preference" as to deeming the political (theirs) as their form of religion (which they advise Catholics should be ours as Catholics).

Why the Pope does not correct this political drift, I don't know (or, can't know given that I am not privy to that level of relationship among these individuals). I can only comment on what I observe and what I observe in the U.S. and from Central and South America are politically motivated individuals who are Marxists by perspective and attitude and who are also Bishops in the Catholic Church.

It's truly a political attack upon the U.S. as a democracy (our privilege to define ourselves so, also made legitimate here by our Constitution) and an insistence that we as Christians modulate into advocates of Marxist deconstruction of our U.S. democracy, in my view.

There are two commandments that speak chiefly to the human character failures that produce illegal immigration and they are: -- Thou shalt not steal, and -- Thou shalt not bear false witness.

Why are not these Catholic Bishops lecturing mostly people from Mexico and Central America (from whence the vast majority of illegal immigrants originate) about character, personal responsibility, sincere conversions to Christianity and so much more? Instead they point accusations at the U.S. population and ignore the character flaws so prevalent in these other areas such as rampant occultism, crime, sexual promiscuity, lack of responsibility to the children borne...the list seems infinite.

I can only say that I do not believe it is credible as a Christian to encourage anyone to sin. Theft, false witness, present in illegal immigration, and encouraging or even tolerating these is not a Christian act but the encouragement of sin and the continuation of sin.

And, it's also a series of legal transgressions in our U.S. context of democracy as stated in our Constitution (separate issue from the Catholic/Christian considerations, I realize). I can't in good conscience ever support, encourage or tolerate illegal immigration both as a Christian and as a U.S. citizen from respective perspectives. Leaders within the Catholic Church (as also within Protestant groups) who are encouraging and rationalizing these transgressions present in illegal immigration are promoting Marxist Socialism and elevating the political to a place of religion. I reject that.

The Catholic Political Church will listen to only Mexico city for political race reason, if you work with evil doers you become a evil doer.

listen only to your own mind and see it for what it is.
