What are Deportations? And why do many Catholics have it wrong?

The US bishops and many others seem to misunderstand what “deportation” means in the language and content of Church documents. Very interesting read.

The article starts:

“PROBLEM: Official Church documents on faith and morals have perennially been written in LATIN.  That fact is not the PROBLEM to which I referred.  The PROBLEM is that, at least in these USA, not many of our clergy – particularly in the upper ranks – can read Latin. …

So we can rightly ask, What Does The Church Really Teach about “deportation”.

Here is an idea or two for our bishops to mull over before making sweeping statements in which the word “deportation” might appear.”

What is Catholic teaching about “deportation”? Maybe not what some higher-ups think.
