The Catholic church has been running an Underground Railroad for Illegals for decades.

I live in a a town of about 7000 people. The Hispanic population in the area about 3%. Our Catholic Church added a Spanish service, then for some reason ended it. But now all services are Spanish and English, roughly 50/50, complete with Mariachi style hymns. The change is far from popular. Attendance is down, many have complained, but the Church seems to not care at all.

they'll change, I know up north, the Hispanic Masses don't come close in the collection basket as do the others.

and I like to point out to liberal catholics is that how are we helping the immigration of those catholics in India, Africa and elsewhere? Seems they don't count, just the illegals coming from Mexico do. That's not too fair.

You mean like "The Ratline" for Nazis to Argentina?
