Mormon Church Support for Immigration Reform — Naive or Mean-Spirited?

Comments made by Dieter F. Uchtdorf, second counselor in the LDS (Mormon) Church's First Presidency, coupled with earlier public statements issued by the church on the subject of immigration reform, raise questions about whether Mormon leaders are exceptionally naive or simply mean-spirited and cruel.

Following a meeting with President Obama, Uchtdorf told a Salt Lake Tribune reporter that "President Barack Obama's outline for immigration reform matches the values of the Mormon faith." Later, in an interview with the Deseret News, Uchtdorf said the shared values include compassion, family cohesion, respect for law, and common sense.

The problem arises when Uchtdorf and other Mormon leaders apply these values to immigration reform and focus totally on mercy for illegal aliens while ignoring all those who have been seriously harmed by illegal aliens.

The Migration Equation: Big Business+Big Agriculture+Big Labor+Big Religion=Big Immigration

The Catholic Church, the Church of Latter Day Saints (the Mormons), and the Southern Baptist Convention have all endorsed pro-amnesty proposals.

Good links, thanks. It is orthodox Christian to help those in need, and the USA has been blessed. But in a world ruled by human nature, it is prudent to consider the effect of trying to combine disparate nations by relocation of the inhabitants. Do mission work, send food, expertise, medicine and so forth. As you point out, the do-gooders have blinders to the dark side of human nature.

I think most of the major churches have been infiltrated, just as education, courts and legislatures have been. All part of the same NWO scheme.
