Then enlighten me.

What specifically is ICE doing that is dehumanizing?

“ #SacredScripture is extremely profitable for the soul. Like a tree planted near a stream, the soul that is watered by #Scripture grows hearty and bears fruit in due season. It is fitted with leaves that are always green, with actions pleasing to God” (St. John of Damascus, #Orthodox Faith 4, 17).

Sounds to me they are so close to being Catholic they just should cross the Tiber now and get it over with.

The Church calls for compassion, yes, but also for order, justice, and respect for legitimate national authority.

Every nation enforces its borders, to my knowledge ICE isn’t doing anything different. What specifically is ICE doing that is dehumanizing?

Usually they only get put on for Sunday Mass, but for her day today I turned on Margaret Mary's lights.

Justice will be done in an eternal sense, but don’t expect it to happen in this life.

Aaronaeus @aaronaeus.bsky.social · 13h

We can care about human dignity and still acknowledge truth: illegal migrants broke the law by crossing the border without permission. Mercy never excuses injustice. The Catechism calls for both compassion and respect for lawful authority, charity must walk with truth.

Aaronaeus @aaronaeus.bsky.social · 13h

2241 also reminds immigrants to “respect with gratitude” the host nation, obey its laws, and “assist in carrying civic burdens.” That includes obeying laws, paying taxes, contributing to the community, and respecting the common good, responsibility goes both ways.

Aaronaeus @aaronaeus.bsky.social · 13h

Leftists often twist Church teaching to mean we must take everyone in, no matter what. But the Catechism doesn’t say that. Defending migrants doesn’t mean ignoring borders, laws, or due process. Justice demands compassion and order, both protect human dignity.

Aaronaeus @aaronaeus.bsky.social · 13h

You’re right that every person is made in God’s image and deserves dignity. But the Catholic Church also teaches in CCC 2241 that nations may regulate immigration “to the extent they are able.” That means the right to migrate isn’t unlimited, it’s balanced by the common good.
