It harms America when we let the whole world come in without vetting or limits. It harms America when we don't deliberately bring in people who will help the economy for all Americans. It particularly harms unskilled, non college educated citizens when we have a porous border because they take jobs that would have been given to the low skilled, non college educated. Any law that fails to follow these guidelines is a betrayal of our citizens and essentially makes citizenship worthless. We have to make up our minds whether the USA is a land for its citizens or for the whole world.

It harms America's when one individual is allowed to acquire enough assault weapons legally to kill 59 and wound over 500 in a matter of minutes!

Where? For example.

The Catechism says that while homosexuality is never acceptable, the causes are unknown and pose a cross for those so affected. Their rights are to be respected and they are to be encouraged to bear that cross in chastity in their spiritual path to God.

 

[Nihilo]

The Catechism says that while homosexuality is never acceptable

Right.

, the causes are unknown

Right.

and pose a cross for those so affected.

Right.

Their rights are to be respected

Right.

and they are to be encouraged to bear that cross in chastity in their spiritual path to God.

Right.

Where's the problem? Do you have another example?

 

[The Barbarian]

If you're now in agreement with the Church, that's fine.

 

[Nihilo]

If you're now in agreement with the Church, that's fine.

I've been in agreement with the Church all along, so that's fine.

Nihilo, to annabananahead:

Almost magically passive aggressive in passivity and in aggression both; not only that, but gracious and too humble to admit it!

There's no smilie for that Anna. LAIN: doesn't work against that.

:darwinsm:


outstanding response! :first:


and more!
Nihilo, to annabananahead:

This is another massive passive aggressive response from you.
To your credit, in all honesty. Not everybody---and I mean, almost nobody---can perceive such professional grade and superior quality passive aggression. It evokes within such an unaware negativity and stress, and that can lead to anger, but it is constantly misplaced, due to the professional grade, superior quality of the passive aggression; in that, it is undetected because it is undetectable. That's part of the nature of this type of passive aggression. The part of it when wielded by a perceptive and insightful aggressor that makes it even more effective, is the precision. It evokes precisely stress in its unaware victim, like a guided missile, hitting on target with no collateral damage.

And so, I say to your credit in all honesty, because at least here we have an open and honest attempt to display passive aggression openly and honestly.

CCC 2241:

2241 The more prosperous nations are obliged, to the extent they are able, to welcome the foreigner in search of the security and the means of livelihood which he cannot find in his country of origin. Public authorities should see to it that the natural right is respected that places a guest under the protection of those who receive him.

Legal immigrants to the United States now are at their highest level ever, at just over 37,000,000 legal immigrants.

37 million seems pretty welcoming to me

what number would you deem acceptable?
