oh, i bet the church will support illegal immigration, they've been very vocal on that front....I think it's a big mistake on their part, it's one of the reasons why Catholic Hospitals and Schools are closing. Also, wasn't it Jesus who said to obey Caesar's and Civil laws? Our laws say that illegal immigrants must be deported. Funny, in the 1990's when the catholic Africans were being slaughtered by muslims I never heard a thing from the church about having them immigrate to the USA. What? Just because their countries don't border the USA they had to forget about them? I wish they would come clean on that one.

More Catholics need to start slipping copies of section 2241 of the Catechism into the collection basket in lieu of money and include a note asking their bishop to explain why they are thumbing their nose at Church teaching.

2241 The more prosperous nations are obliged, to the extent they are able, to welcome the foreigner in search of the security and the means of livelihood which he cannot find in his country of origin. Public authorities should see to it that the natural right is respected that places a guest under the protection of those who receive him.

Political authorities, for the sake of the common good for which they are responsible, may make the exercise of the right to immigrate subject to various juridical conditions, especially with regard to the immigrants' duties toward their country of adoption. Immigrants are obliged to respect with gratitude the material and spiritual heritage of the country that receives them, to obey its laws and to assist in carrying civic burdens.

I believed you are referring to Rwanda. In 1981 there were apparitions reported at Kibeho of the Virgin Mary. She foretold a civil war, Aids, and one seer described a "river of blood", people killing each other, abandoned corpses, bodies without their heads. In 1994, a civil war broke out in Rwanda. In just three months an estimated 500,000 to one million were killed, beheaded by machetes and dumped into the Kagera River ("river of blood"). Also in 94 Africa had seventy percent of the world's aids cases.
The apparition was approved by Bishop Augustine Misago, who issued a "declaration on the definitive judgment"...and the judgment was that they were true: officially authentic.
The Virgin Mary also told the seer Marie-Clare Mukangango, who was killed, the warnings were not just for Africa.
