. Cardinal Timothy Dolan blasted the Trump administration’s policy of separating kids from their parents on Friday night, calling it “un-American and unbiblical.”
The White House got into holy hot water this week when Attorney General Jeff Sessions and press secretary Sander Huckabee Sanders both referenced scripture to claim the administration has the moral authority to forcibly take kids away from parents if they cross the southern border illegally. “I mean, that’s just unjust. That’s un-American and unbiblical,” Dolan, leader of New York City’s 2.8 million Catholics, told CNN on Friday night.
Sessions specifically cited the Apostle Paul who in Romans 13 reminded Christians to honor and obey authority.

Cardinal Dolan, would it be more “Biblical” if we killed every immigrant... man, woman and child, as well as their animals?
Are you really this ignorant? Yes, I fear you are.
I cannot help but to be totally turned off when any of these top Catholic officials speak publicly about protecting children. They would do themselves a favor to keep quiet at this point.
...”I have read that kids were trafficked in America in the Obama years.”...
It was explained on the news I saw about these children that the photos were taken in 2014, during the Obama administration.
There is nothing biblical about the vatican either.
The fact that the Vatican secretary of state is being invited to these kinds of gatherings shows the growing political role of the Catholic Church.
Too many in the Church are unbiblical - from this “Cardinal” to the “CEO”....
Said the same yesterday in an argument with some liberals. If I take my family to Mexico and we are caught, and my kids are taken to another place then it is my fault. I broke my own family up not Mexico
Too bad. See my tagline.
“Be subject for the Lord’s sake to every human institution, whether it be to the emperor as supreme, or to governors as sent by him to punish those who do evil and to praise those who do good. For this is the will of God, that by doing good you should put to silence the ignorance of foolish people. Live as people who are free, not using your freedom as a cover-up for evil, but living as servants of God. Honor everyone. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honor the emperor. 1 Peter 2:13-17”
So all those Jews who went like sheep to the gas chambers back in the 1940s were obeying God’s will then.
Some God you got there.

Any Law that goes against God’s greater LAW can and should be resisted. Laws promoting abortion for example.
But many laws are made for orderly living. A red light by law means STOP I am sure somewhere someone could dig up some scripture and or theory of why we shouldn’t obey that law, but do not trafic laws make live safer and more orderly, heck seems to me even with these laws there still plenty chaos during rush hour I do not care to see the results of having none. Imigration laws are in the same vien made for safety and order.
Luker you have smarts I have read many of your post and we agree far more than we disagree. I also know that your heart is harden to belief and no arguement no matter how elegant or wise will change that. I wish it was not true, but it is.
As to your question might as well ask why does the Lord allow bad things to happen? I do not fully understand it myself, but I do know that a Being able to create all that is about us must be a mind so great that it is far beyond any man’s ablity to comprehend. Personally knowning my own limitation I certianly don’t have moxie enough to question his ways.
You ask if Jews were just following the law when they loaded themselves on the trains and walked into the ‘showers’, might as well ask why the LORD didn’t merely reach out and crush the Nazi before they could commit their acts. As he told us himself:For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the Lord.
For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.Isaiah 55:8-9
In the end belief has always been a mater of trust and faith. For me my observations of the world about me makes me positives that man and everything around him are far to prefectly alined to be random and thus there is a Creator and why would such a mighty Creator wish harm and destruction on his creation? Especially one that he offered his own son that we may live.
The families were all intact in Mexico before they deliberately chose to break US immigration laws.
I on the other hand have never deliberately broken any canadian or mexican immigration laws.
Maybe living by the golden rule is something they ought to consider.

>> “I on the other hand have never deliberately broken any canadian or mexican immigration laws.” <<
Very good decision on your part!
.
very bad wording
So should Trump instead have every first born illegal immigrant put to death instead??
Biblical enuf for yah there ???
Why dont you loudly denounce all the dems for their endorsing murdering babies via abortion???
Why dont you go help people in mexico so they DONT HAVE TO come here ???
“might as well ask why the LORD didn’t merely reach out and crush the Nazi before they could commit their acts..”
That’s not my question is.
My question is what kind of God demands his worshipers to go like sheep to slaughter no matter how evil their government is?
That’s what I don’t understand.

I said that any law that differs from GOD’s law is not to be obeyed.
