I wonder if the Catholic teaching on divorce and contraception, as well as its rather boring and impersonal service (too intellectual and remote) doesn't turn off large numbers of less educated people, many of whom have complicated "family" problems. Perhaps Pope Francis will attract the poor back to the Church.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7708139263643046536.post-24720142441858902512013-11-15T23:06:14.505-05:002013-11-15T23:06:14.505-05:00Actually the truth is that most immigrants recent ...Actually the truth is that most immigrants recent immigrants from Mexico and Central America are NOT Catholic. That's a fact. Most are either not religious or belong to other religious like Jehovah's Witness, Seventh Day Adventist, and any number of other non-denominational Christian groups. This is self evident by the way. I live in South Texas and I can tell you that any number of churches are absolutely full on Sundays with recent immigrants while Catholic churches typically are attended by 3rd, 4th 5th etc generation Mexican Americans and also some wealthier middle class Mexicans living in the U.S. Isn't that interesting that typically the wealthier Mexican's living in the U.S. tend to be Catholic yet the poorer immigrants mostly tend to be of other religions or not religious. Then there's this type of mega church called "Para de Sufrir" Iglesia Universal located all the major cities in Texas that I assure you have far more immigrants attending than any Catholic parish.

But the Republican Party is not the Christian Party. If it more (or less) opposes abortion and same sex marriage, it nonetheless pursues economic policies that are not in the interests of the largely poor new immigrant voters you correctly identify as Christian or Catholic.

The more challenging part is the sentence before what you highlight: “the Church in America must be a vigilant advocate, defending against any unjust restriction on the natural right of individual persons to move freely within their own nation and from one nation to another."<br />What is an "unjust" restriction? What was John Paul's view of this? Did he ever offer a definition?<br />I can understand not allowing criminals to enter freely, but to close the border to virtuous and law-abiding people who have no history of violence for the simply reason that they are poor, or brown, or whatever, seems unjust.

If the latter, should we not be in favor of the "free movement of peoples" (that is, against closed borders, which serve to protect primarily the wealthy)?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12774987352165959344noreply@blogger.com
