Catholic Bishops at it again.
I completely understand, but for me priests, homilies and bishops will come and go but the Eucharist will always be where I can engage fully with a living God. I just couldn’t give that up.
I can’t understand how anyone can identify themselves as Christians and still be rabid libs. Yet they can justify it until they are the blue in the face :(
“Google it and you’ll see a bunch of info out there that NEVER makes the ‘news.’.”

The faith further calls them to adopt 5 each and raise them on their own dime! That’ll never happen.

League City, Texas bans illegals:
.
RESOLUTION NO. 2014-_______
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF LEAGUE CITY, TEXAS TO PROTECT THE HEALTH, SAFETY, AND SECURITY OF OUR CITIZENS AND COMMUNITY; AND PROVIDING FOR OTHER MATTERS RELATED TO THE SUBJECT
WHEREAS, the citizens of League City, Texas recognize their duty as law-abiding citizens to act in accordance with the U.S. Constitution and the Texas Constitution, and agree that their right to life, liberty, and property shall not be infringed; and WHEREAS, the federal government has failed to protect the homeland in accordance with Article 1, Section 8 of the U.S. Constitution, Texas has the right and obligation to protect its citizens in accordance with Article 1, Section 1 of the Texas Constitution:
Freedom and Sovereignty of State.
Texas is a free and independent State, subject only to the Constitution of the United States, and the maintenance of our free institutions and the perpetuity of the Union depend upon the preservation of the
right of local self- government
unimpaired to all the States.
And is supported by Article 1, Section 29 of the Texas Constitution:
Provisions of Bill of Rights Excepted from Powers of Government; To Forever Remain Inviolate.
To guard against transgressions of the high powers herein designated, we declare that everything in this (Texas) “Bill of Rights” is excepted out of the general powers of government, and shall forever remain inviolate, and all laws contrary thereto, or to the following provisions, shall be void.
WHEREAS, the citizens of League City Texas are greatly concerned regarding the ongoing massive influx of illegal aliens seeking unauthorized entry to the United States; and
WHEREAS, it is estimated that more than 90,000 minors will arrive in the United States during the 2014 fiscal year and an additional 145,000 illegal alien minors in 2015 fiscal year, with most expected to remain in Texas cities and communities; and
WHEREAS, the leaders of League City question the impact that the sudden influx of school-age illegal minors will have on our Independent School Districts’ (ISD) educational funding, school resources, campus security, and health safety for our children; and
WHEREAS, health advisories report that many illegal aliens suffering from diseases endemic in their countries of origin are being released into our communities; and
WHEREAS, the federal government is actively seeking more locations within Texas towns and counties to accommodate the unprecedented overflow of illegal aliens and unaccompanied minors; and
WHEREAS, the increasing volume of illegal aliens is already bankrupting some cities and counties in the State of Texas by overwhelming the local medical, educational, law enforcement, and judicial systems; and
WHEREAS, members of dangerous transnational criminal organizations and radical Islamic terror groups continue to exploit the situation to infiltrate the United States for the purpose of establishing criminal activity, terror cells, and training operations within our homeland; and
WHEREAS, without a secure border Texas cities and communities cannot protect the health and safety of their citizens; NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LEAGUE CITY, TEXAS, as follows:
Section 1. That all agencies of the City of League City are instructed to refuse requests or directives by federal agencies to permit or establish any facility for the purposes of processing, housing, or detaining any illegal aliens, designated as “refugee” or otherwise.
Section 2. That in order to control the potential threat of communicable diseases reported to be prevalent among illegal aliens, all appropriate agencies of the City of League City are instructed to prudently exercise the City’s police power in any manner necessary to protect the health, safety and welfare of the citizens of League City.
Section 3. We hereby appeal to our state legislators and elected officials for action and accountability to urgently address the continuing influx of illegal aliens across our border. •
Through State executive and legislative actions demand that the Federal government provide additional resources for new and/or existing Border Patrol checkpoints, and employ a contiguous physical barrier where strategically prudent. •
Demand the Texas State Legislature to enhance state smuggling and human trafficking laws, and provide civil liability protections for Texan land owners against criminal trespassers. •
Demand the Texas State Legislature abolishes any and all state-controlled or sponsored magnets that exacerbate the problem of rampant illegal immigration, such as (but not limited to): in-state tuition subsidies, welfare benefits, and free non-emergency health care for illegal aliens. •
Require the State to perform a cost/benefit analysis of the illegal alien presence and report that cost to Texas taxpayers and state agencies. •
Pass legislation to prohibit “sanctuary cities” which restrict law enforcement from determining the immigration status of detainees after the commission of a crime within our communities.
Section 4. That civic responsibility demands that community and state leaders begin crisis planning immediately to address the unprecedented wave of foreign minor school age children that could be enrolled in Texas schools this summer; and
Section 5. That the City of League City, State of Texas, calls on other communities and jurisdictions to join with us in this action by passing similar Resolutions.
Section 6. That copies of this Resolution be immediately transmitted to the Governor of the State of Texas; the President of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives of Texas’ legislature; each individual legislator that represents our City in the State of Texas; the Commissioner’s Court of Galveston County; and the Sheriff of Galveston County.
PASSED AND APPROVED on the _______ day of July, 2014. _________________________________ TIMOTHY PAULISSEN, Mayor ATTEST: _______________________________ DIANA STAPP, City Secretary

Galveston Co has also passed a resolution to ban illegals
“Section 5. That the City of League City, State of Texas, calls on other communities and jurisdictions to join with us in this action by passing similar Resolutions.”
Why not all of us do this. Would this work?

and only those districts that don’t check IDs.
He probably thinks it's one of the 57 states.
Churches the blood of ones dying because they are encouraged by your actions to risk coming here is on your hands if you take part. Encouragement to come here puts them at a far greater risk than remaining in their own nation where you can send all the help you wish. You also encourage epidemics which our own healthcare system may nor be able to contain or cure. This is wrong. Very wrong. It is also against the law despite what Obama says.
It's time to think the formerly unthinkable....there is a definable clerical class in this country that is actively, nay, eagerly, working along with Obama (or ANY socialist dictator) and his policies to bring this country and its achievers down....and this clerical class is shamelessly using religion and bible-verses to persuade, to shame and/or to cow religious folks to go along.
Some of this clerical class are determined, hardened "social justice" socialists-with-collars....others are big-hearted, pure in motivation but naive and unwitting pickers-of-our-pockets.
(Pardon my run-on stream-of-consciousness, it's late).
In this border invasion issue, "social justice" for the alien illegals is being very neatly and purposefully SEPARATED from the lawlessness, chaos and raging expense of it all. "Social justice" is only being applied for the benefit of the invaders....NOT for the American taxpayers and neighborhoods being affected by the horrible negatives and the upcoming upheavals of the onslaught.

Why can’t they be sent to mosques?
Pray that they aren't. Think about it.

Right on. Well written and exactly right. Excellent analysis, especially about some of our clergy that are doing our country no good.
Maybe we could put out the message that all illegals to make it over the White House fence will become instant citizens.
(Just got a mental image of thousands of them crawling over the WH fences LOL)
God Bless you that you can receive the Eucharist. I married a Jewish man and could not be married in the Catholic church, so I can no longer participate in the sacrament.
I hope that your services stay untainted by this travesty of Christian charity.
Thank you for the kind words and thank you for reminding me what a blessing and responsibility it is for me to receive the Lord.
Many Blessings to you.
Praise be to God.
That is not doctrine, but liberation theology which has infected the church, mainly in South and Central America
