Priests Without Nude Little Boys

Catholic Bishops Get It Right on Immigration

Diverse religious groups are condemning the law and calling for federal immigration reform, but Catholic prelates have taken the lead. In March the bishops of Arizona wrote publicly against S.B. 1070, saying it could 'be detrimental to public safety and ... divide families.' Around that time, Houston Cardinal Daniel DiNardo met with Texas Sen. John Cornyn, in hopes of persuading the Republican to take up a legislative fight on behalf of immigrants' rights. 'We've been very concerned with how we treat human beings,' says Bishop John Wester, chair of the Committee on Migration and Refugee Services for the USCCB. 'We believe that human beings are suffering and being put in an untenable position because of our broken legal system. With S.B. 1070, those problems are made worse. This is very scary to us.' A theology that upholds 'the dignity of human life,' he explains, respects all life. It doesn't criminalize the desire to feed one's family. It doesn't make certain people second-class citizens.

Holy Shit! Jesus Fucking Christ! God Damn! I agree with the Catholic Church!

At least on this issue. Their relaxed attitude towards the skull fucking of little boys still bothers me.
