The fact is that the Church includes three entities: the Magisterium, the Bible, and Tradition.

None of this teaches that clergy telling the government how to change its laws, especially in opposition to what the Catechism states (Magesterium) and the same tenet applies to other activities taken on by people within the Church acting in ways that are not sanctioned by the Church

Humans are not saints and they can always err

But the Church is not the people in it, making it up as they go along

So, no, incorrect
