I've seen this all over FB mixed in with the pro-life messages. How can Catholics compare feeding hungry humans to feeding wild animals and secondly criticizing them for reproducing?

Tiffany, you completely misunderstand! It is the church's duty to feed the poor. The government's business is to run the affairs of state; to keep in check the bad guys so the good guys can go about their business of doing good (such as feeding the poor).
It is absolutely wrong for a government to take from me to give to others.
Haven't you noticed how the use of food stamps has greatly increased? The far-off big government can't monitor the program closely enough. The church is local & can do a better job.
Truly sad & incredible that people can't understand some truths.

I did not completely misunderstand. That wording compares feeding humans to animals and criticizes those being fed.
The issue of who feeds the hungry if it should be the state or done privately is different.

Because the program recipients is increasing does not mean it is not monitored close enough.

Please pray for Bishop Richard Williamson, a noble prelate whose wisdom and zeal for the truth have inspired many.
On October 23, 2012, the good Bishop was cast out of the SSPX, where he had labored tirelessly for 36 years.
His continued membership in the SSPX would have made a premature union with Rome more difficult.
