But note, Mexico is largely Catholic, the same as Italy and France. Tell me, how's it going in Italy and France? So you're a bitter Catholic? Spare me the drama.
I'm Catholic and I love the Church. It's truly magnificent. Italy and France are no longer very religious; more a problem in France, as Italians still have their religious instincts even though they don't go to church. Latin Americans that I've seen have been very enthusiastic about contributing to the Church in America. A Columbian from my church is on the county commission, cutting taxes.
You'd like Mexicans better if they were gay-ordaining, abortion-loving Episcopalians, eh? Well, I don't quite no what to say to that!

I could give you drama about my own Catholic experience. But let's look at the facts. Italy and France. Try those five words there. Will they work? Heck, you're online. Give it a try right now. Good luck. They are dominantly Catholic. You don't stand a chance. In fact, their Catholic faith, it would appear, is driving them away from God. Look at the stats. It appears obvious to me, especially in Italy, the seat of the Vatican. Being close to the Pope hurts their faith, although this Pope is a good man, noted. FReegards....

As a Protestant whose ancestors fought in the American Revolution, I resent very strongly what the Roman Catholic Church in the USA is doing to aid and abet illegal immigration solely to increase its own power base.
My French Huguenot ancestors could tell you a completely different story about the Roman Catholic Church -- one that you obviously would not want to hear.
