Polio already is back.

Oh, wait. No. It’s “polio-like” virus. Not to be confused with ‘polio virus”.

I do not say this with glee—instead with a heavy heart; but who would be surprised if the Almighty brought a plague on this wicked nation for its many sins? We have turned our backs on Him. We celebrate the denigration of His day, we have shattered the family, marriage and children. Private property rights are not respected. Religious freedom is at the whim of government. Scripture is mocked. Judeo-Christian ethics are hated in the halls of academe, the courts and our literature. Entertainment is a cesspool.

So, should God visit this land with incurable disease there would be little surprise.

People of God, if that happens we are not called to scream viciousness at our neighbors. We ARE called to do what our ancient brothers and sisters did—go to the hurting and love them. The body of Christ grew as it embraced the dying and the broken, as He did for us.

They should be grateful they’re not all dead from Ebola considering how they acted when Obama was importing that as fast as he could.

How about focusing on the true issue: immigration.

Is it really immigration or illegal aliens sneaking across the border who have not had their proper medical screening. I am sure that legal immigrants go through medical screening.

It's not just New York.

The entire country is over run with third world escapees loaded with diseases that were defeated here in the USA years ago.

In the area where I live the Hispanics and Africans are becoming the majority and it has happened in just a few years.

I personally know people who have contracted tuberculosis without knowing how or where or from whom.

That's 18 months on a mix of expensive antibiotics, plus costly lab tests and hospital visits.
