I see many people are angry at all of these illegals coming into the U.S. I can understand it but if you are a true Christian shouldn't you want these poor people to stay in this country and escape all of the poverty in their nation? As I said i can understand why people would not want illegals coming into this country but what i can't understand is why a Christian would want to turn them away. What would Jesus do in this situation? A lot of hypocrites out there if you ask me. Most religious nuts are Christian on paper but in reality they are just selfish $#%$#.

I find it hypocritical that Christians are the conservatives who favor small government and less social aid while we can conclude Jesus was a kind of socialist. Not that I'm a socialist, but if I was a Christian I wouldn't be a crazy ass fuck the rest of the world capitalist.
I don't want illegals coming where I live because we can't support them anymore, but that's a different matter.

I agree with you that we can't support illegals but if I was Christian
I would not be able to agree with you, because Jesus would not turn away the poor, sick, desperate, etc.

I guess you can love thy neighbour as long as they don't live anywhere near you.

Obviously not every Christian listens to everything Jesus said. He said once that he came only for the Jews, yet many Jews believe he didn't actually meet all the requirements for a messiah, and most Christians are non Jews.

Yes. I'm not an american I'm saying where I live we can't support more immigrants, illegal or even legal. But Jesus would find a way to help people.

The Christians are a big enough majority in the USA to make welfare redundant, if that's what they really wanted.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
