MGB:_This homily started as more about migrants than St. Patrick. I wish he would have made the connection to the plight of the Palestinians. Patrick’s status as a slave is interesting to mention, especially given the bias against the descendents of slaves by those who also object to migrants. Oddly, the current objectors, who voted for Trump, were once unwelcome immigrants themselves. That the Cardinal was welcomed by a Muslim is profound indeed.
Tobin is putting his body where his words are, just as Francis does. Sadly, the DHS will not be moved by spiritual authority.
Tim Busch’s sloppy bit of triumphalism shows exactly how seriously we should take Napa, which is not at all. They should be ejected from CUA.
