U.S. Rep.-elect Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y. wished her Twitter followers a Merry Christmas Tuesday by referring to the newborn Jesus as a "refugee."
"Joy to the World!" Ocasio-Cortez wrote. "Merry Christmas everyone - heres to a holiday filled with happiness, family, and love for all people. (Including refugee babies in mangers + their parents.)"
Mary and Joseph are not depicted as refugees in the Nativity story. According to the Gospel of Luke, Joseph brings the pregnant Mary to Bethlehem so that he may enroll in a census ordered by the Roman emperor Agustus. The couple are forced to take shelter in the stable where Jesus is born due to a lack of room at the inn.
However, in the Gospel of Matthew, Mary and Joseph flee into Egypt with the infant Jesus after King Herod of Judea orders the murder of every boy aged two and under in Bethlehem after the Magi ask him where to find the newborn "King of the Jews." The Holy Family escape the slaughter and are told by an angel to return to Israel once Herod is dead.

Um, he was a fetus. Until He was born. No planned parenthood back then. Thank God!
The LORD works in mysterious ways. Now He even has demonicRATS preaching the gospel.
Well, who ya gonna believe? The Gospel of Luke, or Our Lady of Perpetual Stupidity.
Communists hate Jesus...hypocrisy knows no bounds
Try reading the Gospel of Matthew. Occasional-Cortex has committed one brand of stupidity. Don’t commit a different brand in response.
FIFY
Mindless meme over theology, but who’s counting
Christmas is the biggest day of the year to atheists.
My response when liberals spout nonsense like they know the Bible is to point out that they would pushed for Mary to abort her child.
Ocasio-Cortez and her New Green Flush
Well, who ya gonna believe? The Gospel of Luke, or Our Lady of Perpetual Stupidity.
Ding! Ding! Ding!

How mis-informed!
She IS an imbecile, but unfortunately the majority of New Yorkers are likewise imbeciles. They have their perfect representation in an arrogant ignoranus who is either just as stupid and willfully ignorant as they are or who mimics their stupidity quite well. New Yorkers are a serious threat to to the freedom of the USA. They have been trying to inflict socalism/totalitarian on the rest of the country for decades via their elected representatives.
Fifty New Yorkers are a much greater danger to the USA than 50 ISIS primitives.
Wasn’t his mother a legal citizen going home to participate in the census?
Oh wait.. maybe Jesus was her anchor baby.
Gawd this woman is uninformed and apparently Has never read the Bible.
Joseph and Mary were not the types to even think of going to something as abominable as Planned Parenthood. And if they ever heard of such a thing, they’d be nauseated.
And yet another book/document horseface makes obvious she hasn’t read.
That drives me crazy. Joseph and Mary had a home in Nazareth, and in Bethlehem, they were staying with Joseph’s relatives.
