Did you know that . . . "nearly 40 percent of the Catholics living in the Untied States are Hispanic, making the constituency a highly important one for the church." Did you know that the Hispanic/Latino population growth rates for some counties in the southeastern United States has exceeded a growth of 500 to 1,000 percent between 1990 and 2000
Most unfortunately, you will also find that the Catholic Church and Charities and many, many of their misguided parishioners are collectively the largest and most blatant illegal alien enablers in this country. They are citizens of the United States who, in direct violation of our federal immigration laws, enable illegal aliens to enter, live and work here in America! Everything they do in the name of their 'Christian beliefs' is done in defiance of our immigration laws and without any concern for the harm they are causing the rest of us hard-working, honest, law-abiding, mostly Christian Americans. What they do, by definition, makes them traitors, guilty of treason because they betray their country, and countrymen in order to promote an agenda of aiding and abetting illegal aliens, in direct contravention of our laws.
"In 2000, about 67 percent of funding for Catholic Charities agencies programs comes from state, local, and federal government grants and contracts to provide services such as day care or welfare-to-work programs. Another 14 percent of Catholic Charities funding comes from private support-the church, donors, United Way, and CFC funds. In addition, program fees (10%), investment income (6%), and in-kind income (3%) support Catholic Charities agency programs . . . [for a total of] $2.69 billion [in 2000].

The New Testament canon of the Catholic Bible and the Protestant Bible are the same with 27 Books.

The difference in the Old Testaments actually goes back to the time before and during Christ’s life. At this time, there was no official Jewish canon of scripture.

The Jews in Egypt translated their choices of the Hebrew Scriptures into Greek in the second century before Christ. This translation of 46 books, called the Septuagint, had wide use in the Roman world because most Jews lived far from Palestine in Greek cities. Many of these Jews spoke only Greek.

The early Christian Church was born into this world. The Church, with its bilingual Jews and more and more Greek-speaking Gentiles, used the books of the Septuagint as its Bible. Remember the early Christians were just writing the documents what would become the New Testament.

After the destruction of the Temple in Jerusalem, with increasing persecution from the Romans and competition from the fledgling Christian Church, the Jewish leaders came together and declared its official canon of Scripture, eliminating seven books from the Septuagint.

The books removed were Tobit, Judith, 1 Maccabees, 2 Maccabees, Wisdom (of Solomon), Sirach, and Baruch. Parts of existing books were also removed including Psalm 151 (from Psalms), parts of the Book of Esther, Susanna (from Daniel as chapter 13), and Bel and the Dragon (from Daniel as chapter 14).

The Christian Church did not follow suit but kept all the books in the Septuagint. 46 + 27 = 73 Books total.

1500 years later, Protestants decided to keep the Catholic New Testament but change its Old Testament from the Catholic canon to the Jewish canon.

The books that were removed supported such things as
+ Prayers for the dead (Tobit 12:12; 2 Maccabees 12:39-45)
+ Purgatory (Wisdom 3:1-7)
+ Intercession of saints in heaven (2 Maccabees 15:14)
+ Intercession of angels (Tobit 12:12-15)

The books they dropped are sometimes called the Apocrypha.

What they teach is in every bible. They teach from. a bible They just have some extra books. The Catholic Church teaches from the Catechism, not so much the Bible.

Who are the pro-illegals that you point to? Are they the corporate entities that provide this society with services and products and do so with the first body that shows up at their door.

What do those entities do with the cash they withhold from checks of the illegals payroll. What do the contractors do with the cash that they withhold and know they are not going to forward it to a taxing authority?

Those are the pro-illegal I have knowledge of.

A Baptist pro-illegal perceives them the same as a Catholic pro-illegal. "Can you work today?"

yes it mentions not to steal and lie it mentions all of the commandments, it mentions all of the parables jesus made it also mentions to have faith in jesus and god and it also mentions the exile to babylon the genocide that the israelites commited on the canaanites and it also mentions the oppresion that the hebrews went through in egypt. So as far as I know its pretty much the same except it has the book maccabees and maybe some different words here and there. As far as interpretation thats up to the individual that reads it but I know there are a lot of people that refer to themselves as catholics, christian, etc and they have not read the bible, so in reality they don't know much about christianity itself.

Though I'm not Catholic, I would strongly encourage them to assemble a pro-ENFORCEMENT movement!!! If this 'untickles' the powers that be over yonder there in the Vatican, they need to read THEIR bible.

As Imacatholic so eloquently presented, the Catholic bible, itself, differs little from the Protestant versions.

But, as happens all too often, "Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely". Gleaning from the teachings of Christ concerning the Pharisees, there is nowhere that this corruption is more prevalent than where faith is concerned.

Each and every strain of this "money-changer" mentality among Catholic leaders or, for that matter, any religious leader, must be rooted out.

There are missions (both Protestant and Catholic) witnessing astonishing determination to work for a better life. In villages in Africa, Laos, etc, local people battling poverty are quick to donate land, labor, and whatever they have to build schools for their children. Governments there are no less corrupt than in Mexico. If anything, they're much worse.

Still, the people understand that you reap what you sew. If their children get a solid foundation in learning, their society will produce more doctors, engineers, entrepreneurs, etc. All of which will lead to that proverbial "better life" we incessantly hear used (as an excuse for self-depricating behavior.)

When the hearts and minds of those who justify the immorality of defying the express laws of a land ("Give unto Caesar what is Caesar's; Give unto God what is God's"), ...when they finally feel that long-overdue sense of guilt, I believe they'll be building schools, hospitals, roads, water-works and businesses of all kinds because...why?

Because they'll have finally accepted that NO OTHER PERSON MUST BE EXPECTED TO DO IT FOR THEM!!! Such expectation is rooted in "pride" and "selfishness" which diametrically oppose the teachings of Judaism, Christianity, Hinduism, Buddhism... just about all major faiths.

The catholics basically teach the bible in a way that is both logical and spiritual. We see the bible more contextually (we see the meaning behind the words) while most other Christians read the bible literally (believe that the bible is historic fact). I believe Catholicism is the smartest Christian denomination.
