The Catholic Church is sucking up.
Same church that has a hard time admitting they have a Queer Problem here in the US.
Sorry....tell me I'm wrong.

Again, I think you are seeing this with too much of a United States lens as to how the Church Universal views this issue. Again this is a stance that the Church has had for some time. It developed at a very fast rate after WWII when the World for all practical purposes was turned upside down. The Church and its leadership has spoken at times on the challenges here but its not been its primary focus. I suspect that as to Rome, the Church has been much more involved in the Philippine side of the issue.
Nevertheless, I am trying to show the Christian Theology of what the Church is asking us to consider when we have these debates on migration. This issue gets clouded because such a lightning rod as Cardinal Mahoney has somehow become the MSM Catholic spokesman on this. I guess that is because he is in California. However when the Church is speaking its speaking from a Worldwide perspective the same as it does on most other issues.
