When It Comes to Illegal Aliens, Papal Infallibility Is a Crock!
By John W. Lillpop
Perhaps it is naive to expect much in the way of moral leadership from an institution that coddles sexual perverts (masquerading as "Holy Fathers")
who use their presumed holiness to deceive and sexually manipulate thousands of unsuspecting children, while professing to act in the name of God.
How much respect is owed an institution that has spent billions of dollars to settle law suits brought by innocent children against said "Holy Fathers"?
With all due respect to Pope Benedict, the Catholic Church is no longer respected as a source for moral inspiration in America.
The following words from the Gospel of Luke seem to apply.
Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?
To be perfectly candid, the fruit of the Catholic church these days is rotten. As in figs and thistles.
Which means that the pope's rhetoric on illegal immigration is irrelevant at best, and, at worst, is self-serving drivel intended to shore up sagging membership in the Catholic church.
Papal "infallibility" and or "inerrancy" is obviously a myth when one considers the following:
Rather than blaming Americans for resisting the invasion of our great nation, Pope Benedict should be providing moral and spiritual leadership by calling on illegal aliens and the Mexican government to respect the borders, laws, property and culture of the United States.
Rather than chiding U.S. authorities for enforcing the rule of law, the pope should demand that illegal aliens voluntarily return to their nations of origin and follow established procedures for legal immigration to America.
Rather than calling for open-ended compassion for those here unlawfully, the pope should remind illegal aliens that receiving public services such as education, food stamps, and health care to which they are not entitled is stealing. Stealing is a sin.
Rather than lecturing law-abiding Americans about opening their wallets and hearts to illegal aliens, the Pope should condemn document fraud and ID theft, crimes used extensively by illegals to secure employment and public services. Such practices are bearing false witness, and are sins.
Illegal immigration is like robbing a bank. It involves disregard for the law and wanton thievery of goods and services belonging to, or intended for, others.
Illegal immigration is wrong, and should be condemned and most emphatically by the leader of the church allegedly bequeathed to the faithful by Jesus Christ.
The Pope's position on illegal aliens is immoral! At least with respect to illegal aliens, that means that Papal infallibility is a crock!
