In Guatemala over 50% of the population is Catholic
In Honduras 97% of the population is Catholic
In El Salvador the Catholic church seems to be losing followers
I was born Catholic, I still consider myself Catholic. For as long as I can remember the Catholic Church has always asked it's parishioners for money, and other charitable donations for other Nations. The humanitarian crisis is born and thrives within Catholic dominated countries, but when it crosses into the United States of America is becomes a racist firebrand. I don't think this is a productive, or reasonable summation of the issue. Last month Pope Francis excommunicated Italian mobsters. Here is a good example of making a spectacle out of something to make a point to others watching. Mostly a symbolic gesture, since public hanging, burning at the stake, or drawing and quartering a human nowadays is viewed as barbaric, and inhumane. Besides the fact a Catholic can always find a church they can receive the Eucharist. (you can't catch me nanny nanny nanny)
It is important to keep the topic clear without mixing up issues. The Catholic church needs to honestly evaluate this situation. The Catholic church needs to claim this crisis as their own. Stop allowing good, hard working, Americans from having to take the brunt of a crisis that is completely a Catholic crisis. A spiritual crisis.
Where in the Body of Christ are we allowed to shift blame?
