Nice theory. But, it doesn't fly. These people have no coins to drop in the collection plate. They are just as much a liability to the Catholic Church as they are to society in general.Illegals send several billions of dollars back to Mexico yearly. The transfer of money to Mexico from America is the second largest source of revenue after oil revenues for Mexico
You are sadly mistaken if you believe the Catholic church is not eyeing tapping this revenue stream for itself

Illegals send several billions of dollars back to Mexico yearly.Right. So why should they give to a church in this country when they can send it to their families?
No, I think it is just that batch of liberal bishops, who allowed child molestation, trying to get some brownie points to atone for their sins.
Why don't the Mexican bishops tell the people to stay in Mexico and work for its improvement?

And how is the Church going to do that? Buy Western Union?
Do you REALLY believe ole Vincente Fox is going to let the Church get their hands on the only money that's propping up his puppet government?
