Speaking of an "ecumenism of hate," if I may use the Vatican's phrase -- in the last 20 years over 7000 people have died trying to make a perilous illegal entry into the U.S.   These people were tacitly encouraged take this risk by their Catholic leaders, who assured them that illegal immigration was morally just.   

If the priests and bishops had instead told them to respect the law, and to not risk their lives....but no.
