Mexicans who help build President Donald Trumps planned border wall would be acting immorally and should be deemed traitors, the Catholic Archdiocese of Mexico said on Sunday, turning up the heat on a simmering dispute over the project.
In a provocative editorial, the countrys biggest Archdiocese sought to increase pressure on the government to take a tougher line on companies aiming to profit from the wall, which has strained relations between Trump and the Mexican government.
Any company intending to invest in the wall of the fanatic Trump would be immoral, but above all, its shareholders and owners should be considered traitors to the homeland, said the editorial in Desde la fe, the Archdioceses weekly publication....

Just think about what the Mexican government and pro-illegal Mexican lobby groups are saying with these tantrums. Do they realize they are admitting Mexico is a third world failed state unable to care for her own citizens AND unable to maintain a viable economy?
All they care about is government $$$$, butts on pews, and $$$$ in the collection plate.
Why aren’t Mexicans who come to America to start businesses and work in the fields instead of starting them in Mexico and working in Mexican fields considered traitors?
So the Mexicans who want OUT of Mexico aren't traitors, but the ones who believe that Mexicans belong IN Mexico are.
Interesting logic there.
I wonder if anyone in the archdiocese ever read Revelation 21.
There it describes the New Jerusalem being lowered to earth.
It HAS WALLS that measure 1500 miles long on all sides, with 12 gates, 3 on each side. 12 angels are at the gates to the city. The wall is 72 yards thick.
For the archdiocese to claim the wall is immoral, they might want to check with God first. His wall is going to be a lot larger than what we are building.
I also believe that God told Nehemiah to rebuild the wall of Jerusalem, about 2500 years ago.
Past and future God builds walls.
I suppose this Cardinal Norberto Rivera has got his marching orders from the drug cartels and la Raza. It’s all about the money.
Yeah? Well the Catholic church of Mexico has sided with the rulers down there for centuries and is just as responsible for the misery south of the border.
As a Catholic I am outraged at a Catholic leader undermining the US.
They should be asking why Mexico is so much poorer than her northern neighbor.
When they get the answer to that and determine who is responsible, they have found the real traitor.
We should be able to make a cut and dried case for political usage of tax free donations. Anytime politics is brought up at Notre Dame, the local church or mosque, strip away the tax exempt status.
Exhibit 10001 of why state churches are a lousy idea
Good fences (walls) make for good neighbors.
Known fact for thousands of years. Haven’t they ever heard of the Great Wall of China?
If an illegal is caught coming across the border put them to work building the wall..
it’s an ooga booga black magic threat to control people of low IQ who can’t read the Bible for themselves so they need “help”
This is how they’re going to destroy religious freedom, promote political Priests.
