The Catholic Church is all about having more Catholics. If bringing the poor Catholics of the Third World here results in them being able to breed more Catholics, then it's a good thing, in the eyes of the Church, even if helping the poor of the world results in the impoverishment of the American middle class.
The Catholic Church helps all minorities. Makes no difference what faith they have. I am a Knight of Columbus and we raise money constantly to help feed and clothe the poor, and it makes no difference what faith they are. We never ask anyone if they’re Catholic. Makes no difference. If a bunch of muslims were trying to get out of Iraq due to persecution, the Church would help them. That the majority of hispanics claim to be Catholic is irrelevant. I just think it’s bad policy to let anyone in the country that comes in illegally. They should be arrested and deported. A country without borders is no country.
