At present, 33 countries and two territories allow birthright citizenship out of 194 nations on the planet, meaning, it's not exactly a common phenomenon by global standards.
This hasn't stopped the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops and some NGO they're politically aligned with from wading into another policy argument, calling President Trump's executive order banning birthright citizenship to illegal aliens 'immoral,' speaking as a 'friend of the court' as the case on birthright citizenship goes to the Supreme Court. The document is here.
According to Sahara Reporters:
The United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) has launched a legal offensive against President Donald J. Trump’s executive move to terminate birthright citizenship, labelling the order "immoral" and a direct assault on "God-given human dignity."
It's unseemly, not just because they shouldn't be wading into politics the same way greedy six-figure-salary NGOs lawyers focused on federal funding do.
It's obviously a cynical ploy to sway the Court through religion, given that the vast majority of Supreme Court justices are some variety of Catholic, both wokesters who don't practice the faith, as well as committed Catholics.
This is obvious enough in their constant arguments that begin with 'Catholic teaching says,' as if the U.S. were a Catholic country. Compare and contrast that to what the likely author of the document, wokester Cardinal Blase Cupich of Chicago, who blessed the partisan Democrats at their convention but hid his pectoral cross to avoid annoying them. Was that 'Catholic teaching says,' too, to pretend to be not a Catholic?
The U.S. is not a Catholic country, but these bishops know there's a Catholic-majority Court, which they'd like to guilt-trip and sway, effectively suggesting that anyone on the Court who doesn't share their point of view on this very prudential matter

Most of the invader rugrats were born in the USA and the Supreme Court is likely to deem them to be citizens despite the limiting language of “and of the state where they reside.”
Chinese birth tourism babies generally haven’t resided in the USA, so they didn’t get citizenship by merely being born in the USA.
IMO, that implies the birth citizenship clause is to be limited to those US born persons living in the USA as of the time of ratification.
Not a problem since most of those in the USCCB are not.
Nothing in the Bible NOR Catechism makes deciding birthright citizenship is not a right of foreigner in this country a sin.
However Catholic leaders who would use the “authority” of the Church to imply otherwise are indeed sinning in that act.
No European or Asian country has automatic birthright citizenship. Not a single one. In the Americas, it’s a mixed bag.
Do these bishops also protest all the other countries?
How does the State Department permit a visa to enter the US to an obviously pregnant woman?
With the potential to misinterpret US law, that would seem to be an obvious no, no.
“which they’d like to guilt-trip and sway”
Oh they don’t have to work too hard at that.
Other then Thomas, they all grew up seething at the idea of a Protestant country being so successful.
Bringing it down is the one thing they obsess about daily.
Pope Roberts is the point man to make the hit, and turn us into Mexico.
“The floor of Hell is paved with the skulls of bishops.”
- St. John Chrysostom
That's all that needs to be said. Blase Cupich is the author of the document. You know what its going to say without reading it. Cupich is the most extreme liberal partisan hack in the Catholic hierarchy.
Let America know when you have that one changed and we can discuss…..
Bishops want that money for managing the invasion.
However Catholic leaders who would use the “authority” of the Church to imply otherwise are indeed sinning in that act.

Most of them are political activists posing as clergy. One could reasonable ask is Jesus would demand such a thing of earthly nations. The question is not addressed in scripture, but there is an assumption that there is a legitimate distinction between just worldly laws (that won’t exist in Heaven) and just Heavenly laws (that have no application on Earth).

I voted in 2024 for the obliteration and draining of Deep State and Swamp scum like this
RE: list of justices....
Thanks for that post. I had no idea. None at all.
Norman Vincent Peale (and many other Protestant ministers) worked against JFK’s campaign in 1960. He believed JFK would place his Catholic leaders above the good of the American people and the US Constitution. JFK made a speech that no Pope or prelate would dictate anything to him if he won.
When conservatives want the Ten Commandments in the schools and public buildings or want school prayer or people allowed to leaflet and speak outside abortion centers the cry goes up “Keep church and state separate.”
No, eschatological maniacs think that precipitating the "End Times" will prompt the return of Messiah, 12th Imam, Messiah for the first time, the rise of the Phoenix, the New Age... with whatever they think His agenda will be.
"If we can't all be saints, let's all be sinners!" Oh how fun. (not)
People who think that way should burn.
I think Christ would not see birthright citizenship as a heavenly law issue for the Church. But might not like people claiming it is somehow a heavenly precept.
My justification, scripture:
Matt 3:9 And do not presume to say to yourselves, ‘We have Abraham as our father,’ for I tell you, God is able from these stones to raise up children for Abraham.
Chinese birth tourism babies generally haven’t resided in the USA, so they didn’t get citizenship by merely being born in the USA.

Yes. However, when they show up at age 18 wanting to exercise their citizenship, how is it proved they have not lived in the US? It will be deemed ‘racist’ to question them. Pandora’s box.
I really wish the Church would stay out of politics - or at least on occasion be on the right side. Sigh.
Tear down the Vatican wall then you can talk about immigration and citizenship.
