The dude thinks that the constitution kicks ass... except when it interferes with his small minded social views. But I was especially irked when he talked about the Syrian refugees. I would love for someone to ask Pence this question...
"According to James 1:27, 'Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world.' So wouldn't this scripture imply that you being a "pure Christian" would mean accepting the most vulnerable of Syrian refugees?"
What's your opinion on letting refugees into the US? I hear this a lot, but the person bringing it up up never states their opinion on the issue. In many places in Western Europe, their policies have opened up many new problems for current citizens. I desire to help all the needy, but am unsure if just opening up the door and letting everyone in is the best solution. Just bringing them to new place may get them away from immediate harm, but not solve all their problems. We've seen it can also lead to physical harm for others as well.
