Thanks, Alex. Looks like “obeying the law of the country” comes in a poor second to both churches.

The Catholic Church is against illegal immigration. Problem is, quite a few bishops, especially American bishops, flagrantly take an opposite stance on the issue.

But the Church as an organization opposes illegal immigration.
