Everywhere I turn the talk is about the Syrian refugees and why we should take them or why we shouldn't. What I'm not hearing is much common sense or Christian charity. Why all the idiocy about the refugee crisis? I'm talking about the stupidity and lack of common sense by those who want to throw open our borders and those who want to refuse entry to all refugees. On the one hand, Christian charity demands that we welcome the stranger and give solace to the homeless where we are able. We are the richest and most prosperous and bountiful country in history. We can, and should make room for the homeless and those displaced by war-especially as our own involvement in the Middle East has contributed to the mess. We have meddled in the countries of the Middle East-in their politics, their economics, their wars and their military coups. We've propped and then toppled their dictators. We've invaded their countries and bombed their people. Of course we should take in their homeless refugees. On the other hand, when you see the hordes of fit young men streaming across the European borders you can't help but suspect that these are not refugees but an invading army. Should we open the borders to just anyone? Of course not. Why can't anyone use common sense? The clear answer is that we are a Christian country. We should accept as many Christian refugees as possible. By accepting only Christian refugees we guarantee that Islamic extremists are not sneaking in.

they would be smart not to move into muslim neighborhoods.
but obummer, as we all know for a LONG time now, hates Christians and whites.
he detests America and wishes to see it in flames of civil war.
13 months.
ZERO!!
The problem is with Muslim men who claim that they're Christian, but they're not. Anyone can claim a conversion.
They do have a standing declaration of war against us! We should treat them as such.
Hell, no.
Christian or not? Just offer all would entrants a ceremonial soup and sandwich, a ham sandwich and a bowl of ham hock soup.
Yes to Christian and Yazidi and similar minorities. A religious test we should make because ISIS uses a religious test to select who they kill
The ME Christians tend to take care of their own and become productive citizens who are great allies against the Islam virus.
Really? The Saudi's have a higher per-capita income than we do, but I don't see them trying to help them. Indeed, this is true for much of the Mideast. They have much stronger social and cultural ties than we do, so why aren't they throwing open their doors?
The Trojans should have listened to Laocoon. We should remember him.
0bama wants to destroy the U.S. not ISIS.
The good Fr. makes a good point.
But so far, no one has addressed the question of why the other goat-humping muslim countries don't accept the goat-humping muslim Syrian refugees.

Even if there is no terrorism.
How much 3rd world culture do we want in America?
They are fearful that they may not have enough goats to go around?
The Saudis and other oil-rich raghead countries have never lifted a finger to help the “Palestinians” either.
We could do with a fair bit of the culture that the Christians from Syria are responsible for: “In Antioch the disciples were for the first time called Christians. (Acts 11:26)”.
