This article from the front page of the Dallas Morning News was a bit disturbing to me, mostly due to Dallas now being the number 2 city with the most new Hispanic immigrants (I can say almost all of them are illegal from just looking around). But also seeing from the article that the Catholics will ALWAYS shelter illegals because of the huge boost in numbers they are giving to the religion (which I believe had been seriously going downhill until the illegal immigrant surge of the last years). Not to mention they ENCOURAGE them to have as many babies as possible, due to the no-birth-control rule, the rise in the number of Catholics, and its a "gift from God." Normally I would agree that babies are a gift from God, but when they become a burden on society, I don't agree as much. Why is it that most established, traditional religions LOVE to brag about home many members they have? That shouldn't be the main focus of their religion.
