The protestant churches all favor amnesty, too.

Being a Catholic is harder than being a protestant I guess.

No. They favor amnesty because some of them have adopted this squishy idea that everyone is a “victim.” They are very wrong on this as they will soon learn.

Roman Catholics who have left the faith have tended to either drift toward a Protestant denomination

Very odd wording. Obviously no Hispanic ever made a considered decision to leave Catholicism and become a Protestant.

No, he just "drifts" into a Protestant church, like a leaf blown by the wind.

Slowing their decline in membership is part of it. The other part is it is a leftist church and the thinking is amnesty will create more Rat voters. If the govt is controlled by leftists the church will get more of it's "social justice" agenda pushed through.

In Los Angeles, former Archbishop Mahoney sold his soul to illegal invaders, counting on them to fill the pews in his churches. A loser in so many way is the Archbishop Mahoney.

At a Catholic high nearby, they had black man running the school, after about two years they fired him because he was only accepting black students in to the school......

One of the history teachers told the class that the White House was painted white because America is a racist nation....

Not making this up....

In the state of Rhode Island, Hispanic Christians were among the most vocal opponents against the state’s endorsement of sodomy.

We need more Christians of every race to take a stand for Christian values.

The Church does NOT favor amnesty. Catholic doctrine provides that nations have a right to secure their borders.

"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." Catholic Catechism, 2241.

The American bishops have taken it upon themselves to contradict and violate Church doctrine by trying to make open borders an article of faith.

Proportionately, I see underused Catholic churches in the Tucson diocese by Mexicans in the neighborhoods where they are most concentrated. The white neighborhoods with Catholic churches are bursting at the seams with non-Mexicans and have them chock a block.

I suspect that many illegals here don’t go to any denomination church. Because of those I visited, they are under-represented.
But when you visit their homes, they are filled with saints and religious imagery. Maybe they prefer to worship at home.
