Once the Supreme Court began to belatedly protect the First Amendment, some lefties began to get the clever idea to rebrand their particular horrible things as their religious practice. The Satanic Temple which, unlike the Church of Satan, is just a leftist movement that isn’t serious about human sacrifice, started bringing religious freedom cases, and there was a push to classify abortion as a religious practice.

Calling aiding illegal aliens invading America a religious practice protected by the First Amendment may top even that.

Government officials would be infringing on religious freedom if they were to restrict the Catholic Church’s work serving migrants along the U.S.-Mexico border, says a top U.S. bishop.

Archbishop Timothy Broglio, president of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, addressed the issue this week while in Louisville, Kentucky, for a USCCB meeting where migration issues, including the long wait for religious worker visas, came up repeatedly. He acknowledged recent targeting of faith-based border work by government officials, including the Texas attorney general’s attempts to shutdown a Catholic nonprofit that has operated a network of migrant shelters for decades.

“We obviously want to respect the law, but if that liberty is restricted, then yes, our religious liberty is being restricted because we can’t put into practice the precepts of the Gospel,” Broglio said during a news conference Thursday.

This doesn’t work for the same reason that classifying abortion as a religious practice fails the 1A test.

The First Amendment provides a wide cone of protection for religious practices, but you cannot classify crimes, abuses, and the invasion of America as a “religious practice” and a ban on it as a restriction on your religious freedom.

There have been various tests of the limitations of religious freedom when it came to substance abuses, such as Jewish and Catholic uses of wine during Prohibition, and the use of drugs by some Indian tribes.

Killing babies or invading America may indeed be your sincere religious belief (maybe both if you’re a follower of Mohammed) but since these acts cause harm to other human beings, they’re still illegal. Sorry.

Now to be fair to the Left, theirs is indeed a religion or a cult, just not one that they will admit to. Instead, they disguise themselves in the forms of actual religions while claiming that destroying the country is how they live out their moral values.

There are too many pro-invasion activists wrongly using Catholicism, Judaism or other religious beliefs as their shield.

But you still can’t invade America. Sorry.
