This is on both of our minds, but for different reasons. You were typing this post at the same time that I was typing this post.
Where you are more focused on what the USCCB was doing with these funds, while I was focused on the fact that they should not have been receiving these funds to begin with! Both are valid concerns.
As we saw with the DEI form of investing by Blackrock and the sort, it didn’t matter if the consumers boycotted these companies that were pushing ideologies that were contrary to the values of the consumers, because these companies would still get the funding from the top rather than from the bottom. They did not fear a dip in sails, because they would get the funding from corrupt corporations.
The same is kind of true with the USCCB and Catholic Charities. I used to give to Catholic Charities, but when these organizations began doing things that the faithful found problematic, their funding from the faithful went way down. But, they apparently didn’t care, because they were, as we know now, were getting funding from another source.
They have sold their soul to politicians. They need to get right with God!
I don’t have a problem with Catholic Charities helping individuals in need (here legally or illegally), as Christ would not differentiate, but if they are funding individuals to come here illegally, then this is criminal and it needs to stop. If these organizations were taking government funding, then I say audit the USCCB. Audit Catholic Charities.
