Sunday on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” Gov. Jerry Brown (D-CA) said it was not a “Christian thing” to build a border wall to stop undocumented immigrants from coming into the United States because he said they were “children of God” and, “They should be treated that way.”
Brown said, “The wall to me is ominous. It reminds me too much of the Berlin wall. When I see that 30-foot wall I worry somehow are they trying to keep me in or keep them out? I really think people ought to be careful because there’s a lot of odor here of kind of a strong man, a kind of a world where you want the ultimate leader here to be doing all of this stuff, and having a wall, locking the people in is one of those characteristics. I think America ought to be very careful when we make radical changes like a 30-foot wall keeping some in and some out.”

He added, “We are going to do the right, human and I would even say the Christian thing from my point of view. You don’t treat human beings like that. That is not what — Trump’s supposed to be Mr. Religious Fellow and I thought we had to treat the least of these as we would treat the Lord. So I hope he would reconnect with some of his conservative evangelicals and they’ll tell him that these are human beings and they’re children of God, they should be treated that way.”

How many are in his house, besides the maids?
tell it to the Vatican
Then build the wall along the border from east to west, and when you hit California, take a sharp right and continue the wall right up to the Canadian border. There ya go, Jerry - they’re all yours....with no more federal $$$.
I love it when secular progressives lecture Christians on what Jesus would do.
Also, mr abortion is going to lecture us on Christian values.
Certainly, it isn’t a Christian thing to criminally enter a country and suck off a living from the citizens...
On the contrary, boundaries are very biblical. God established distinct boundaries for Israel. Also much case law in Scripture for boundaries being enforced.
Read your Bible, please, Mr. Brown.
Godless Commies...is there anything they don’t know?
Can anyone just walk into Gov. Brown’s office and take a seat? Can anyone just walk into Gov. Brown’s home and set up residence? Or does Gov. Brown have locks and walls to keep people out?
Inquiring minds want to know.
The Berlin Wall was developed to keep people in. Trump’s wall is to keep people out.
Well, Jerry is certainly the authority on what is Christian. /s “
The story is that he tried to become a Jesuit Priest but was so lazy that the order threw him out.
Weird how the Bolshies like Moonbeam go running to God when they want something. Hypocrites. He needs to go tell “the Christians” in Mehico that it’s “not Christian” to force their population across the border into the U.S. Do that and then I’ll be impressed.
Aren’t these the same people that are always telling us were NOT a Christian Nation?
Great idea, why don’t you submit that plan to Trump.
All of a sudden the leftists are experts on Christianity.
It is the human rights violation of the ages. Forcing brown people to live in brown majority countries because they are so bad though the badness has no correlation whatsoever to the people in the majority there. (And yes I know it is culture and not melanin that is the root cause)
“When I see that 30-foot wall I worry somehow are they trying to keep me in or keep them out?”
This self manufactured personal threat is a figment of his imagination. If unlimited immigration from the US to these countries south of the border caused as much trouble for them as the reverse does here, the libs would be totally in support of their right to build a wall and protect themselves.
The new Jerusalem has four walls and twelve gates
